Welcome to Indosat Ooredoo's 2025 team HQ (which also comes with the empty promise of being updated way more regularly) for the upcoming 2025 MG UCI cycling season!

Our 2024 PCT season was very successful and resulted in our promotion to the MG UCI Pro Tour - the highest level of cycling. We return after a brief 2 season stint in 19' - 20' which saw the team achieve some incredible highs - winning monuments and GT stages - and also some crushing lows which lead to our eventual relegation to PCT.

The team has undergone many changes since our last PT stint, namely the investment in both building a strong core of Indonesian riders as well as investment in one plucky Irishman - Eddie Dunbar. Dunbar was signed in our return season to PCT for a staggering $815k from the free agency. With a little bit of extra work each off season Dunbar has become the most accomplished rider to ride in the team's colours, culminating in winning the PCT Individual standings and finishing 2nd in the Worlds ITT last season. Promotion means stiffer competition and less opportunity, but he hopes to make the most of it.

After 10 seasons in the MG peloton, 2024 was one of the most successful seasons the team has had to date both on and off the road. Following the success of the team, cycling fanaticism is exploding across the Indonesian archipelago. Amateur teams have been popping up all over, and participation at junior levels is higher than it has ever been. The PTHC Tour of East Java was a celebration once again, with a stacked field of some of the best riders gracing the roads on the island of Java. While we weren't very active in the race, it was a great 4 days of raacing.

For the upcoming season, we are looking to continue to foster our Indonesian talents and hopefully unearth several more. The Firdaus brothers have continued their development with Ahmad reaching his potential in time for the upcoming season. His brother Prasetyo is aiming to be in a similar position this time next year.

No sponsor changes for the upcoming season, but Mos burger have signaled that this will be their last season sponsoring the team. Other sponsors are currently being sought out to replace them. ANZ's contract with the team is also ending, it is unknown if they will be returning next season.

Our renewals were average, not spectacular but also not catastrophic - a fine balance! Dunbar had one of the most expected wage increases with his training + results from last season, and his wage now closely resembles his skill. Bagioli, despite his terrific season took a wage cut. A.Firdaus and Wibisono finished their development and understandably demanded a higher wage. Besides that, it was just the usual yo-yoing of the core riders of the team. We said goodbye to 8 riders - Justo Tenorio, Abdul Gani, Clement Venturini, Brendan Canty, Aiman Cahyadi, Murilo Affonso, Owain Doull and Wojciech Pszczolarski. Although Tenorio was with us for only one season, he turned back the clock and put in some great rides to help us on our way to promotion. Gani and Clement both leave the team as age is catching up to them - Gani has been with the team his entire career and as a former RR NC for Indonesia will be sorely missed.

As with every year, take this list with a grain of salt. Availability is moreso 'likelihood to leave' - every rider is available to negotiate for the right price. That price however depends on how likely they are to leave.

Dunbar we don't see leaving, but if the right offer comes in anything is possible (that offer would have to be quite decent though ). Definitely not a strict 'no'.

Bagioli was a welcome addition to our team last season, finishing 14th in the PCT standings with 700 points. We would very much like for him to remain with the team, but are unsure if we can accommodate him and will definitely listen to offers.

Sakalou is a decent hybrid on a great wage and is C2 eligible - he will be leaving the team. Cash preferred, swaps possible.

Rubenis is already an alright cobble/sprint domestique, and will only get better as he continues his development. We don't have the capacity to keep him without any cobbled riders, so he will be leaving the team.

Van Vliet is also available, the Aruban stage racing talent will be hitting the open market. A future GT level stage racing/climbing dom, he'll be very helpful in almost any team setup.

Any Indonesian rider that receives an offer will incur an additional 15% tax to their perceived value - buyer beware.

Our wonderful jersey designer hillis91 has been hard at work during the off season break, and has been able to create this wonderful kit that the team will showcase throughout the season. It's quite a bit different and streamlined to what we've worn in the past, and we can't wait to show it off. We're stoked, and again a huge thanks to hillis

2021 World Road Race Champion Fernando Gaviria has joined Indosat Ooredoo for the 20235 MG UCI cycling season! Largely considered the fastest man on two wheels, Gaviria has decided to join Indosat from the Free Agency after the demise of his former team, the legendary Moser. He also becomes the highest paid rider that has ridden for the team, in front of Jan Bakelandts in 2019 and Eddie Dunbar in 2022.

Gaviria is a rider who really needs no introduction - a former world champion, winning the rainbow jersey in a tense race in New York in 2021 for then team, Isostar. Gaviria has had a storied career, racking up many wins and points. He joins Indosat after a successful season last year that saw him win an incredible 6 stages at the Vuelta Espana as well as the points jersey - beating his previous record of 4 stage wins in the 2021 edition of the Vuelta.

Gaviria is the second WC that has ridden for Indosat along with Matt Goss, the 2014 RR WC.

Gaviria joins us in our return to the PT, and we couldn't be more excited. He will be our joint team leader alongside Irishman Eddie Dunbar. He has expressed his desire to potentially take part in another GT as part of his schedule, of which is currently being worked on. Transfer plans have shifted to organising a strong supporting cast to support Fernando throughout the season. He has recommended several riders he would like to join him here that he feels will bring out the best in him - more on this at a later time.

Please welcome the worlds' fastest man, Fernando Gaviria!
