  The most expensive transfer of the week was Nemesi Marchand, a twenty eight year old, 214 point time trial rider. He was brought by sprint4live for a total of 250 thousand dollars from Caixa Galicia. He is one of many new riders Slico has brought recently.
  
  Stefan Pinel was the “odd one out” in Noppes team NECFTW. He was transferred for 185K to his new team Manisaspor. He will race as captain after Ozgur Akman sold his climbers to switch to a hill team.
  
  Twenty seven year old, Romanian Inocentiu Lobont, who’s a 210 point climber, was bought by English hopeful
