Early Evening Giro (18h)

[Hansa]

Hansa Probably will start here. 18h Not ideal will need sitters for some stage beginnings. But after checking them it should be fine as we miss no very important stage beginnings.

Kyshawn George 26 $104,305 87 60 79 53 53 56.1 51
David Constantin 22 $63,358 81 60 71 48 52 55.8 47
Stefan Bellmont 24 $55,171 70 79 54 53 52 69.7 49
Andy Bless 23 $58,193 66 81 76 47 62 73.8 63
Marcel Walpen 23 $48,403 66 77 78 51 50 68.6 52
Raphael Schlattinger 26 $49,550 52 69 77 55 83 63.9 36
Hans Wahli 31 $48,669 50 87 76 50 50 82.8 40

We will bring these 7 + 2 of these 3 young flat Riders

Pascal Meinherz 25 $39,544 54 85 76 52 47 75.7 37
Nicolas Raggenbass 23 $34,458 51 84 72 53 46 76.2 36
Oliver Höner 22 $34,006 53 79 79 51 44 72.1 48

Currently not sure if we give Oliver Höner the advantage over one of the other guys due to his higher regeneration.

Salary will be around 535K.

Goal is winning the Tour. David Constantin has winning the youth Classement as side Goal. But the Team will fully Focus on Kyshawn.
We have no clue how we do that this year. Team is still pretty young but they will do the best to support him.

[schappy]

I will start here, but i dont know, why the Night Giro called herself the evening Giro.

1*1 Kamila Zuk, Hill Leader, very young but possible for Youth Jersey
1*2 Estere Volfa, Mountain helper
1*3 Karolina Piton, future Hill Captain, here to learn
1*4 Julija Kapusta, good in DH, light hilly rider, possible for some escapes
1*5 Kamila Cichon, young classic, here to learn
1*6 Natalia Sidorowicz, good helper for the Gravel stage
1*7 Jana Belomoima, helper in the flat parts
1*8 Anna Maka, Flat
1*9 Miroslav Karhan, only helper


Very easy for us here. Get some good places in the stages and maybe to get a Top 10 Place in the GC, more isnt possible at the moment.

This list will be completed if we know all competitors (hopefully someone in the race do it )

[ECS Cycling]

ECS Cycling will be joining with this lineup:

#1 Alex Harwood
#2 Phil Martin
#3 Mike Grant
#4 Carson Stephens
#5 George Roberts
#6 Graham Baker
#7 Tobias Sagan
#8 Enrique Gonzalez
#9 Hiroshi Yamaguchi

There may be some changes but this is most likely.

Goals
KOM with Grant, top 3 white with Harwood, Top 15 with Harwood, get in the breakaway a lot.

Even if 18h is not perfect the Trojers start here:

Sure starters are:
#1 Roland Symonette - 75-81 53sp - Our Nr1 for stages
#2 Andres Caceres - 71-81-78 58reg - The one for long attacks
#3 Hamid Awate - 73-81 53reg - The allroundclassic without any own ambitions
#4 Bran Leihmann - 74-73 57reg - The lung for holding the speed high on hilly stages

#? Thomas Sankars - 50-81 58reg - Our nr1 for tempo in flat stages
#? Wu Yize - 53-83-73 - The strongest flatrider but without reg his riding has to be well planned

Contenders:
1) Edgar Tekere - nearly sure as cheap 5th classic for some special stages
2) Olena Horodna - our classic with sprint but maybe the giro is too early for her
3) A young rider
4) YiSunSin / Rauno Kostabi - Most likely one of those will fill the flat team
5) Howard Trumpelton - Nearly 0% chances

[Hoefs Cycling Team]

Giro team presentation: Hoefs Cycling Team

As a small team with ambition, we are very happy that we can ride our first big tour. In order to obtain this wildcard we purchased the very popular Ravanelli.

141 Ravanelli, popular home rider, has the goal of winning the 2 time trials. In other stages he acts as road captain.

142 Szoboszlai, young talented TTer, with a great sprint, has as goal: the ciclamino and perhaps with some luck winning a stage.

143 De Knegt, nice helper, has the goal: 2 times top 10 in TT.

144 Elizondo, nice helper, has the goal: 2 times top 10s in TT.

145 Hajsafi, a small but talented sprinter, has the goal: to stalk Kozomara (Falcor CC) and perhaps win a bunch sprint from his wheel?

146 Aantjes, an experienced sprint starter, has the goal of beating Kozomara (Falcor CC) in a bunch sprint when he is having a bad day. Aantjes is allowed to sprint for his own chance in a grand tour.

147 Cobarrubia, young helper, aims to gain experience and help the team where possible.

148 Matola, great helper, can represent Zimbabwe on behalf of my team. The aim is to regularly be in the lead as puller.

149 Kohler, our experienced pacer. The aim is to win a stage, hoping for a late escape.

Goals in summary: 3 stage victories and the ciclamino.
Our main objective remains: "keep the sponsors happy".
Finally, we would like to thank the Choto brothers for their efforts over the past few weeks. They would certainly have been valuable this Giro, but their time will come.
