Who is going where ?

Stumps · 2012-08-09T20:55:20+01:00

Whilst we still have the Vuelta to look forward to and the Worlds, pro teams must be eyeing up likely candidates for new signings. Cav to OPQ ? Nibali to Astana and Roche to Saxo bank so far. How about Sky swapping Cav for Boonen ? Plus i think they need another GC rider to go with Wiggo, Froome and possibly Uran. What do you reckon ?????????????

It doesn’t come out great, but here is what it says

[quote]The next Saxo Bank Tinkoff Bank rider Nicolas Roche hoses now out after World Tour points system. Roche, who showed good form in the Tour de France, has been allowed to stand in the Vuelta à España, although he from next season to run for Bjarne Riis’ team. This means that the points that the Irishman had to get under the Spanish stage race will count for the Danish team and not his present, Ag2r-La Mondiale. – The current scoring system is a disgrace. I am running for Ag2r, but my points do not count for them. It is ridiculous and scandalous. But I would like to thank the team for letting me run even if I leave them after this season, says Roche to Biciciclismo. Briton Jonathan Tiernan-Locke has also signed a letter of intent, he switched to a Pro Tour team. The rider from Endura Racing has been linked with a move to just Saxo Bank Tinkoff Bank. It informs Cyclingnews.[/quote}

I think JTL was away with them before the Olympics as a backup and may yet get a world champs spot with Cav not being there ;)

“He will not be with Endura for next year though. He’ll be with a WorldTour team. What I know for a fact is that he has signed a letter of intent of signing with Team Sky.”

This might mean something? Source: http://www.cyclingnews.com/news/endura-racing-makes-plans-after-departure-of-tiernan-locke

As well, he’s going to do the unique triple of classic triples:

Ghent-Wevelgem, Paris-Roubaix and Ronde Van Vlaanderen

Amstel, Fleche and Liege

Clasica San Sebastian, Paris-Tours and Giro di Lombardia

😀

You heard it here first.
