Eugene Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 I see that Nolan Hoffman road in the colours of Team Alfa Body Works (or something like that) at the 94.7. Is this a new team, a personal sponsor or has Abantu got a new sponsor?
Mountain_Goat Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 Yip, Nolan is riding for Alfa Body Works now, club has been around for a few years, however this is their first season as a pro team.
Paulst12 Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 I heard Team Abantu were no longer around in 2016
Patchelicious Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 Heard a little rumour that the rest of the Abantu team has already been absorbed by another big team. Sure details will be published soon. Think landlines..... ???? This is good news for the road scene.
90 Inch Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 The press releases from Alfa Bodyworks are always clear that Nolan is riding as a guest, and make reference only up to Boxing Day. I suspect Nolan is keeping his options open, he requires a strong and experienced team to back him up.
Guest Lancesball Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 Nolan is most likely gonna ride for Malcolms new team.
rock Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 I though there was going to be like no road teams next year, now it sounds like it there will just be one big team, that should make for interesting racing. Team of 3-4 riders only people, more sponsors, less money, better racing. Really talented guys need not apply. Belgium is thadaway.

Patchelicious Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 Shows you where sponsors see value and their ROI.Not exactly. Most guys who sponsor VETs tend to have a rider (or ride) in it... It is also A LOT less to sponsor a VETs team than an ELITEs team, like way less.
Jakkals. Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 Sub Vet next year, can someone sponsor me pls I've done about 1500km this year incl baviaans @10h28m...see theres potential
Wez-O Posted December 14, 2015 Posted December 14, 2015 Shows you where sponsors see value and their ROI.Absolutely, a corporate can pay R1m a season and get 30 sec of airtime on Supersport or R50k and get mentioned at corporate and networking events as well as social media reach to 10,000 users a month. Its all about ROI.
