How about Tinkoff targeting all the jerseys in next year's TdF? Obviously apart from the white one as Majka will be too old I think.

What took them so long.   Finally someone for the classics for Tinkoff. I wonder if Riis can get the best out of him as he did with the Schleck brothers, Majka, etc.  |

Wow.
World class signing, possibly the biggest transfer in this window.
And the indications from tinkov is that there are a few more big signings on the way. |

No surprise at all. Now it will be interesting to see what the TDF team is like.

Definetely looking forward to how Tinkoff is able to support him in MSR, Flaandern and P-R. He should win one of those next year I feel! And the big question is, of course, how it will pan out in the Tour. Im pretty sure he could win the green jersey on any team, but the question is how Tinkoff will support him in the finals on hilly stages. No matter what, it should be a lot better than the pathetic Cannondale team this year
Also Veloropa tweets: Majka, Trusov extends. Brutt, P Sagan, J Sagan, Bodnar signs. A lot of east european riders here which I guess is what Tinkoffs wants. I still hope a couple of the danish riders will remain in the future tho, especially a rider as Christopher Juul. |

I love this one, there's this whole article about Sagan joining on Tinkoff website and then in the last line:
''Slovak Juraj Sagan and Polish rider Maciej Bodnar will follow Peter Sagan to Tinkoff-Saxo.''
They must feel real nice. They didn't even get their own news about their joining of the team Anyhow one rubbish signing, but necessary to make Peter happy, and other a flat powerhouse, a great signing .

I can't believe I am doing this, but I am actually starting to like a team with Contador in it, due to reasons quoted above.

Now change your name to admircontador 
Sagan to tinkoff is a good for both rider and team, I guess.

You could say the same for Sky, Belkin, Quickstep and on and on and on and on.
Present:
Tinkoff-Saxo - AG2R - Colombian riders
Past:
Francisco Mancebo - Illes balears - Carlos Sastre - Kelme - Robbie McEwen

Sagan vs Boom is hardly any sort of battle...

Well, to be completely honest, the strength on cobbles is shown in spring, not in TdF stage. Of course, chapeau to Boom for a great win, but not any of top cobbles guys were really in form for it or had some stupid tactics (Cancellara vs Sagan f.e.).
Boom is far from the top at the moment.
