Are you sick of being told to pay an absurd price tag to get a capable leader? Don't want to get caught out in the free agent bidding frenzy? Well, you have come to the right place, and I feel I have three reasonable cyclists to offer starting at low prices.
Especially for CT Teams that are searching for a leader.
Sergio Barrio
29 Years Old : € 95,000 : 268th PT Individual Standings (107 Points)
Barrio sprinting for 2nd place at the 2014 Tour of Japan, Stage 5.
FL | MO | HI | TT | STA | RES | REC | COB | SP | ACC | FT | DH | PL | 63 | 70 | 79 | 58 | 69 | 63 | 65 | 52 | 65 | 67 | 64 | 64 | 58 |
Sergio Barrio, the million dollar man purchased in the 2013 offseason, is looking to move on from the program. The Pro Tour was too demanding for his skill set and he doesn't want to be Tejay Van Garderen's backup for another season. His cheap wage should make him an attractive option for any CT teams.
Vadim Ratiy
28 Years Old : € 400,000 : 163rd PT Individual Standings (177 Points)
Ratiy at the 2015 Ukraine TT National Championships, finished 3rd.
FL | MO | HI | TT | STA | RES | REC | COB | SP | ACC | FT | DH | PL | 66 | 80 | 70 | 74 | 70 | 73 | 76 | 53 | 53 | 58 | 53 | 55 | 74 |
Vadim Ratiy, to use the words of roturn during the Ukraine TT report, "might have had a shit season but today he seems to be okay." While we don't have the patience to see if he can have a bounce back season, perhaps you do. His ability isn't awful, just needs a few training increases here and there to make him a top flight PCT leader.
Marcus Fothen
35 Years Old : € 370,000 : 105th PT Individual Standings (299 Points)
Fothen riding in the breakaway during Stage 20 of the 2015 Tour de France.
FL | MO | HI | TT | STA | RES | REC | COB | SP | ACC | FT | DH | PL | 69 | 78 | 71 | 74 | 70 | 74 | 74 | 52 | 53 | 64 | 65 | 60 | 74 |
Marcus Fothen, a former Tour de France champion, is coming to the end of his career. He isn't what he used to be, but still has some fight left in him as shown by his 14th place finish at last year's Tour de France. He would love to lead a CT team to promotion in probably his last season of being an effective point getter.
His hefty wage is off-putting, therefore we are willing to sell him for next to nothing to a CT team looking for a grizzled veteran to lead their team in the mountains and give Fothen his last hurrah in the man-game.
The price below is the current minimum I will accept. I plan to sell all three cyclists and will accept the highest bidder. Cyclists swaps will be considered, but are not preferred. PM me or post below if you want to make an offer!
Sergio Barrio | 450,000 | Vadim Ratiy | 250,000 | Marcus Fothen | Nothing |

Update: Ratiy has received interest for a million dollar offer, but nothing has been accepted. I will consider less for him if a manager is willing to finalize a deal.
No offers for Barrio or Fothen yet. Hit me up!

Update: Barrio has received a leading bid of 450k, I will accept better offers in increments of 50k. Still no bites on former Tour de France winner Fothen (HE'S FREE!) and Ratiy still stands at a preliminary offer of one million.

I'm considering selling a veteran climber. Send your best offers.
Edwin Parra Bustamante
32 Years Old : € 55,000 : 392nd PT Individual Standings (63 Points)
FL | MO | HI | TT | STA | RES | REC | COB | SP | ACC | FT | DH | PL | 67 | 76 | 68 | 70 | 68 | 72 | 73 | 51 | 59 | 69 | 67 | 62 | 70 |
Edwin is capable domestic for any team and you can't beat his 55,000 wage.

Update: Nothing new on Barrio and Ratiy. I will accept the highest bidder, the current offers are Barrio at 450k and Ratiy on a preliminary 1,000,000 but I will consider lower for a firm offer.
Fothen has now received a bid of no fee, and no offers for Parra Bustamante yet.
I'm accepting increments of 50k on current offers. Interested? PM me!

Looking to sell another rider. Going cheap.
José Joaquin Rojas Gil
31 Years Old : € 50,000 : 301st PT Individual Standings (89 Points)
FL | MO | HI | TT | STA | RES | REC | COB | SP | ACC | FT | DH | PL | 74 | 63 | 62 | 69 | 75 | 74 | 72 | 73 | 63 | 68 | 71 | 61 | 69 |
Perfect cobble domestic for any team on minimum wage. Also still no offers for veteran 76 rated climber Edwin Parra Bustamante.
Accepting 50k as minimum bid for both cyclists.

Update: Edwin Parra Bustamante is off the table.
Barrio thread is up for 500k, will accept 50k increments.
Fothen thread is up for nothing, will accept 50k increments.
No offers on José Joaquin Rojas Gil yet.
Ratiy is still a mystery. There is a 1,000,000 million offer pending, but no confirmation. Will accept less at the moment for a more firm offer.

Now listening for any offers on Vadim Ratiy, cash, interesting rider swaps or a combination. Not sure if he will leave now, but just want to consider my options.

I'm willing to part ways with a bunch of useful Spanish cobble domestics. Looking at perhaps a packaged deal for for Ruiz (73CO, 4.00), Domene (74CO, 4.50), Rojas Gil (73CO, Maxed) and Garcia (69CO, 70HI, Maxed). Or willing to sell separately.
PM with your best offer.

Along with my cobblers and Ratiy, I'm entertaining offers for sprinter Eric Young: 130,000 wage, 78SP - 77ACC - 74 COB - With great secondary stats.
A perfect sprinter for a CT team or possibly even the PCT.
He doesn't really fit our plans anymore. Looking for cash.

Young's thread is up for 450k. I will accept increases of 50k.
EDIT: Also, I'm willing to take a starting minimum bid on Ratiy for 375,000.
