So Pardilla and Gerdeman are leaving. Either a decent GC contender is going to signed (heard rumours of Gessink) or Qhubheka is going to forgo any GC ambitions and go for stages only. Heard that too. They have mentioned they looking for a signing from America and the UK. Apparently Steve Cummings(UK) from BMC but that hasn't been announced yet so speculation reigns

Gessink already resigned with his current team, Mtn seems to be going for guys that will do well in one day races and not gc. Both Goss and Farrar i feel are past their best cant remember when last either did something noticeable.

Pardilla was the best rider on the squad its a shame they did not resign him

If you know how the World Tour changes from 2017 affects teams, then you'll know that it will be easier for the MTN-Qhubeka to score more points in the one-day classics than in the tours, hence the signing of Sprinters rather than GC contenders.

Surely Impey would be a welcome addition as an "African" rider........

Think he signed with Orica till end of 2016
