I was wondering if anyone could help me find the “flow-chart” graphic of the history of the current and historical pro-teams. 

I saw it about 12 months ago and it showed which team Rabobank or Mapei etc etc have now become (if they have changed name and not just folded).  For example how Liberty Seguros were previously ONCE and how they progressed into Astana but it covered all the major teams, I think about 20+ teams as they progressed up/down rankings.

I think it showed how names changed over time since the late 60s early 70s.

Thanks in advance.

Ha – I didn’t realise that RaboBelkOttoUmbo originally derived from the TI-Raleigh team.  Suppose I’ll have to support them a bit.

I miss Vacansoleil and Euskaltel though, they always lit up a race.

That covers it but like you I think there’s another one out there. 

Thanks yours answers my questions and allows me to educate my son in the ways of shaved leg suffering & migraine inducing Mapei kit – thank you all very much.

PS Peted76 yes I think there are only a few people who have made any money out of it, one being notably a brash, offensive, arrogant Texan drug cheat, which is all the more ironic!  Suspect Boardman is now quite settled, but I bet he was as poor as Graeme Obree type church mouse during his actual riding career.

It’s not the one I was thinking of but is very similar in terms of content.

Thanks DinosaurJR,

Thanks DinosaurJR,

 

It wasn’t the one I have seen before, the one I’m thinking of is more of a flow chart and starts in the 60s or 70s, but this is a brilliant start.

 

Thank you very much.
