Cadel's latest news...
Sunday, 1 November 2009
Yes, it is true... BMC! I have chosen to ride with the BMC Racing Team for 2010 and beyond. A small but growing team of experienced staff and riders that I see has a lot of potential, and a mentality that fits nicely with my own, both on a sporting, technical and social level. I look forward to working with a new team, in a new environment, towards my same goals; honouring the Rainbow jersey at the highest level of the sport, and ultimately at the highest step of the Tour de France podium.
I would like to thank the Silence-Lotto team for the opportunities they have given me. The last five years have brought some great experiences whilst working alongside some great individuals. Thank you.
I see Hincapie, Ballan and Kroon are there already, but do BMC even have a Pro Tour license? I can't say I remember them racing in any GT. Its a puzzle. With Radio Shack coming in, there will be 2 teams missing from last years field I imagine.

Re: Cadel leaves Lotto...
It's a good move I reckon, staying with Lotto was never going to get him any further. At least @ BMC he will be the one true leader for their GT campaigns with great support from George & Ballan. That is if they are happy to do so. GH will be their one-day Classic leader and Ballan will also get opportunities through the season. My only concern is they need better supporting riders under them.
Yes norbs no Pro-Tour license but I am sure they will either get one or obtain wildcards into the races that matter. There is no way Cadel would have moved without some assurance. Surely???
