Spoke101 Posted June 8, 2015 Posted June 8, 2015 (edited) Not talking about that sticker on the shirt - Just what it means Just to shed a bit of light on the situation. Not being a trade team also means no special treatment from the UCI that all the other pro teams get, they are pretty much classed as individual riders which means they don't get:1. Exemption from entry fees to World Cup events for certain UCI MTB teams.2. Access to the UCI Disciplinary Commission for their riders, their employer(s) and the UCI MTB Team’s principal partners.3. Inclusion in the UCI MTB team classification.4. Information services and publications in addition to the regular distributions.5. Direct online entry to World Cup events for riders in a UCI MTB team.6. Onsite services and benefits at major UCI events (including WorldChampionships).7. Preferential pricing, where negotiated, for technical space at World Cup events… Edited June 8, 2015 by Spoke101 Stretch and Mar 2
