Team Transfers and Rumours 20/21

[Andymann]

Finally confirmed Cav to BM https://www.cyclingweekly.com/news/racing/mark-cavendish-finally-confirms-transfer-bahrain-merida-441323

 

I must be honest, I did have a bit of a concern that Cav would hit the ground running and win his first sprint, showing a fat middle finger to DDD and proving that they should have given him more time.

 

But looking now, and reading a few of the articles - and comment from one of his current team-mates that "it's like he doesn't dare to win anymore" I'm more convinced now that DDD made the correct decision.

Ja me neither. Him and Van Avermart. Bob better make sure he stays his national champ because those brown bibs are meh.

I am like 100% sure you saw the tweet because you never miss anything like that on twitter but I liked the send off tweet by the team. No hard feelings and seems they sad to see him go which only means he got a damn good deal financially.

Lol, I actually didn't see the tweet. Don't follow Quickstep on twitter[emoji1787] but good for him though, he seems to be stagnating a bit at QS the last season or so..and he is so so good..Ag2R seem to be making quite a few moves.

Very sharp for a Monday. Not sure I will see a funnier post this week. EF won't find it funny though.

Not a team transfer but kit change.

 

AG2R will be riding BMC bikes from next season, will be interesting to see if NTT (if there will be an NTT next year) will carry on riding BMC as well.

There have been a few rumours that NTT might look at offloading the team.
