T-Bob Posted October 7, 2019 Posted October 7, 2019 So will Bahrain-McLaren be the GC winning team they are hoping it to be? - Maybe, but not this year Will Cav find his legs and the wins? - Who knows! It's got to be this year or nothing. If he's planning to go the olympics as well he'd better get everything lined up. Looking their team ambitions for Le Tour he'll be freelancing alot. Can Poels pull it off? I have a feeling he's a bit like Porte. A great wingman and super dom' but doesn't have all the pieces to become a true GC guy. Will Landa land a big one? He'll have to stop shipping loads of time in the first half of the big races and stop the trademark 'battle back valiantly in a swash buckling style' (which was only allowed by the other riders because he's so far back in the first place!).
milky4130 Posted October 7, 2019 Posted October 7, 2019 A rider cannot announce or staff until the team has made an official press release, it’s just how it is, so it’s not about me or Willie messaging on the group keeping quite and everyone in suspense.are you still going to coach Willie at his new team?

Long Wheel Base Posted October 18, 2019 Posted October 18, 2019 .They going to disguise a timemachine as a bolide? Or will he suck it up and ride what his sponsors give him?
Long Wheel Base Posted October 18, 2019 Posted October 18, 2019 Its been confirmed, Willie is not going to NTT.In a way I am glad for Willie, really hope he has signed with a team that will support him. Just not sure he will fit in with NTT and all the politics. Willie loves to race and race hard.
T-Bob Posted October 18, 2019 Posted October 18, 2019 They going to disguise a timemachine as a bolide? Or will he suck it up and ride what his sponsors give him? Have a feeling that Ineos will tick alot of boxes for the aussie as far as top notch kit goes. They will also make a plan so he can use his special bars (which appeared to be an issue for Merida). Sky / Ineos are all about the best kit so that you can perform to your best and make a plan. Also the bolide isn't a *** machine.
Dirt Tracker Posted October 22, 2019 Posted October 22, 2019 So is Willie going to Burgos bh then? That's a bit of a drop out out of the WT to plain ol' conti. Good that he's got a ride for the 2020 season in the current market and hopefully he gets some opportunities. Fingers crossed they get a Vuelta berth next year else we may not really see him racing.
shaper Posted October 22, 2019 Posted October 22, 2019 A Pro Conti team.... thought he said he was going to another WT team? At least he his staying in Spain which he seems to like
babse Posted October 22, 2019 Posted October 22, 2019 bit of a anti climax if true... anyway glad he has a team to ride for. Im sure he will light up the pro conti circuit again!
Popit Posted October 22, 2019 Posted October 22, 2019 Is it correct that Daryl Impey's contract ends this season ??Has he signed with MS for next year ?
Shebeen Posted October 22, 2019 Posted October 22, 2019 Is it correct that Daryl Impey's contract ends this season ??Has he signed with MS for next year ?Pretty sure it's been a done deal for yonks. Would be a huge surprise if they dropped him now
