Beers will race with Blevins as Factory 

Wishful thinking on my part.

Awesome for Beers to have opportunity to go for another win.

He hasn't mentioned anything yet on his insta but he's busy punting j&j and Bianchi.

Plapp and I - along with Allan Peiper spent alot of time on the phone, zoom and Whatsapp along with his agent trying to get him over here. We missed that but have actually become friends with him over it. he is an incredible kid and a massive talent and hope its developed and used at Ineos with his free chances. My wife got him his apartment here in Girona funnily enough by chance.

Cav will be a tough once, DQS will need to cough up money now, Cav came to QS with 400k from a personal sponsor from my understanding which covered his racing to a degree, now that he has done what he has there will be no more of that. I think he may of won a stage even with those riders there but not as many as he did as those guys are seriously quick. 

Plapp just rode what I thought was an excellent race to take the Australian National title.

To keep us all properly on our toes w.r.t. team names, Deceuninck is joining Alpecin in sporsorship of the team currently known as Alpecin-Fenix. At LeTour it will be Alpecin-Deceuninck, not to be confused for the team that Julian Allaphillipe will be representing, Quick-Step Alpha Vinyl(Formerly known as Deceuninck-QuickStep) 😵

Am I missing something? this was news from 2021, but then I see it’s a title sponsor change, and not an added sponsor on the kit.

Shame, but if the heart is gone the soul will follow. Hope he enjoys whatever the next side has.

I also see the Arkea guys riding the new Bianchi "Superbike", So it looks like Canyon are no longer with them and UAE now with Shimano DA 12speed and ENVE wheels and no longer Campi SR and BORA wheels.
