HCT update

Written by Hommerts Cycling Team at 17:26 15/5-2020

  Season 52:
  
  A good season for us. At day 90 back in Zyte division at the 105th place, our last time top 100 finish was in season 35 at place 88. So room for improvement!
  
  Points:
  
  Season 48: 466
  Season 49: 401
  Season 50: 734
  Season 51: 1086
  Season 52: 1176
  
  A nice line of small improvement through the season's since wen't active again.
  
  Results:
  
  15 results of which 7 wins. 14 results for Jacob Wieringh(7 wins) and 1 for Marco Geurtsen.
  
  Rider ranking Wieringh:
  
  Jacob Wieringh had his official breakthrough with 1012 points and a 26th spot on the rider ranking.
  
  The future:
  
  We're working hard on becoming an all Dutch team. There is no cash to replace all the foreign riders with trained Dutch riders so we must focus for potential captain material on our talent feature(Wieringh/vd Kroon/ de Jong are from the feature) or the hirelist. The transfermarket we use for the cheaper Dutch climbers who can support the captains.
  
  Currently in training are:
  
  Nico Oldenbeuving( 24y, Climbing VG, DH/HL Small)
  Henk Wikenburg( 20y, Hills VG, CL/FR/SP/TQ/TT average)
  Marco Geurtsen (21y, CL VG maxed, DH nonen maxed, HL Average)
  
  Gijs Warneke and Vincent de Jong maxed at 46 and 47. Douwe de Moel and Huib Borker maxed at 37 and 38.
  
  As for our goals next season we hope to join the Volta ao Porto. And maybe when things don't go so well in division 2 we can also do Norway again in division 3. It will be hard for Wieringh to again get 14 results since the support is younger(inexperienced) and a bit weaker but we are working on that!
  
  Happy new season everyone!!

  @holwerda
  
  Good season indeed, but after day 53 only 1 result so enough room for improvement.
  
  @lokomotiva
  
  Only 2 foreigner left. Depends on how soon i will find a nice talent to replace them, but will let you know ;)
