So, what did you miss?<\/strong><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2><strong>The Dutch squad increases budget<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Jumbo-Visma started the 2019 campaign with the second lowest funding out of the 18 WorldTour teams. However, they won many big races anyway. Mostly thanks to their star Primo\u017e Rogli\u010d, they were one of the teams to watch out for during the whole season. After the increase of funding, they are number eight on the WorldTour rich list. And they believe that it allows them to target even more races.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/B44_fxwFBj-\/<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have a leaner organisation and therefore lower costs. Our capital is on the bike,\u201d explains Merijn Zeeman, the team\u2019s sports director. \u201cWe are not large payers, but our riders have nice contracts. They earn less than they can with the richer teams. Money is not everything in racing. It is also about where they can get better, for which they are willing to let money go. Wout van Aert chose us, even though we didn\u2019t offer the most money. Primo\u017e Rogli\u010d has broken open his contract and that has improved considerably, but of course he is now the number one in the world. He could also earn more elsewhere, but he remained loyal to our project. The same applies to Dylan Groenewegen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jumbo-Visma even managed to sign Tom Dumoulin. It definitely seems that they\u2019re doing something right. Do you think they can challenge Team Ineos?<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What a lovely thing<\/strong><\/h2>\n<div class=\"embed-controller-wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">ICYMI: Mikoto has a hoot: A pet barn owl enjoys a front-row seat on a bike ride in Ichihara, Japan <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/zFa92hAXxd\">pic.twitter.com\/zFa92hAXxd<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Reuters (@Reuters) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Reuters\/status\/1194323976882835456?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 12, 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async data-src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/div>\n<h2><strong>Neat trick<\/strong><\/h2>\n<div class=\"embed-controller-wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Arrived at my gate and there was no seats left at the gate.<br \/>So I pretended to que.
