Excited to announce that Team Starbucks has been promoted to the PT for the 2011 season and with that promotion comes some changes to the team sponsorship. Radio Shack has signed on as a co-sponsor and Trek will be the bike sponsor for this new season.
A new jersey is soon to be displayed and the new bikes unveiled.

Goals for the 2011 Season:
Top 10 in PT
15 Stage wins
Win Tour of California
Top 10 Paris-Nice
Stage Win in all 3 GT's
An ambitious set of goals for a newly promoted PT team, but almost necessary to maintain a spot for next season. Whether we can achieve these goals will depend highly on our offseason signings and renewals. With a modest budget we will have to spend wisely and make some shrewd deals to have success. |

Perhaps he will fall off his bike in the TT and I will actually have a chance with Danielson, or someone I get through Transfers.

Minor modifications to the jersey have been made (after using it in-game I thought I needed to smooth it out some). See above, as I have removed to old version and replaced it with the new one. |

The team is excited to announce the first signing of the transfer season. We have brought in a rider that should help to achieve some of our lofty season goals. Matti Breschel is a great talent and should help in picking up stage victories and points needed to stay high in the PT rankings. |

KISERLOVSKI SIGNS!!!
The management team at Starbucks-RadioShack is happy to announce the signing of the 25 year old Croatian National RR Champion Robert Kiserlovski. With great mountain skill and above average skill in the hills and on the flats he will be a great addition to the team as we chase after our goals for the upcoming season.

ANOTHER DAY ANOTHER NEW RIDER!!!
Late yesterday a deal was confirmed to bring in Andrei Amador. A great all around rider, the team continues to build a solid nucleus of stage race talent to compete in their first year in the PT. |

Worst Transfer Ever?
Freire??? Wow
Not only is he rapidly aging, he is one of the most overpaid riders after no renewal negotiation gave him a wage 3x the value of his minimum.
You are very lucky to have sold him Wiggo, even more so to get 425k for the pleasure ~SN
Perhaps the negativity will spur this tested Spaniard to one more great season. Even if we overpaid we are pleased to have a rider of Oscar's caliber on the squad for this our first season in the PT, we hope he helps to make sure it is not our last.
I other news a transfer of riders and cash made this deal a possibility as we say goodbye to Tom Danielson who performed exceptionally for us last season. In return we see a quality cobbles rider in Arnaud Coyot come back and should help Breschel and Visconti score some points in the classics.
Sebastien Minard also leave the team to clear salary space for some of our new signings, leaving in a transfer deal to Credit Lyonnais for cash.
