Transfer rumours and who's going where.
Well the silly season for transfers and rumours is off and running with teams allowed to announce their new signings at the end of August so who's going where ?
Frank Schleck has put himself in the shop window after Trek said there's no new contract with Bauke Mollema going to Trek by all accounnts.
EBH has made it clear he's looking for something new away from Sky and Wiggins has made veiled comments about going / staying etc etc.
Brailsford has made it clear he wants Bardet as his next TdF winner so will that happen this season as a possible replacement for Wiggins ?
The classics scene for Sky is barren at the mo so will they bring anyone in for that, Lars Boom has been memtioned, and BMC only have TJ as an out and out GC rider with Evans now clearly past it.
Orica have made no secret of wanting a GC guy.
Belkin have their new sponsor for next season but will some of the riders want a bit more security and opt for other more stable teams ?
Sagan is possibly off to Tinkoff due to Cannondale merging with Garmin.

On BR, someone was saying Andy is negotiating with Europcar - I'd assume Fränk will try & follow?
3M? Or are they negotiating with G-S?
Edit: Inrng reporting that Cofidis will be on Orbea bikes next year.
Brailsford was interested in Pinot, not Bardet I understand, had him on the radar for a while, and looks more likely to be the next French TdF winner.
EBH is rumoured to be a done deal to BMC, but seems a strange fit.
Sagan I've read a few conflicting things, one was he was going to the new Slipstream/Cannondale, and the other was he was going to SaxoTinkoff.
Perfect post to advertise this. The past few years. I have done a "Transfers" thread. See here
2013 http://road.cc/content/forum/67036-transfers-2013-world-and-pro-continen...

I was going to start a 2015 on the 1st August, but I just don't feel like doing it anymore. The attitude of many around here puts me right of being part of the community. I do the games scoring because it benefits the many and not the few. But I cannot be bothered putting in the effort of the transfers thread this season.
So anyone who wants to take it on. I'll give you a layout to make it easier for you.....
I know where your coming from mate, send the stuff through to me and i'll give it a go.
