A marketing strategy that has been used in recent years by other small teams, but nevertheless an effective one. British continental team Saint Piran has released a statement calling for the attention of Primoz Roglic as he is set to move out of Jumbo-Visma
"We all go through periods of change in our lives, when we have to make decisions. We feel for you. So let us make your life a little easier. Saint Piran is the team for you!" the team shared in a messag. "You obviously have an eye for a kit, was yellow and black, now maybe green and black or reddy, bluey black (never quite sure) . What about black - just simple black, it’s a cracking kit, no loud logos or garish colours. Imagine your holidays, Cornish beaches, as much Tribute and Rattler as you can drink and saffron buns. We are immensely proud of our team, and with Jack off to EF-Easypost, we have a spot for you! Ride a road to net zero, join our mental health programme and maybe, doing things differently will work out. C’mon you know it makes sense!"
Throughout the winter Team Medellín-EPM famously made an offer to Nairo Quintana following his demise from the World Tour outfit Arkéa Samsic. That is one of a few examples of teams trying out their luck trying to take advantage of difficult situations at the top of the cycling world. In this case, the British team look to capitalize on the very big tremors that Roglic and the possible merger of Jumbo-Visma with Soudal - Quick-Step are causing in the peloton.
Roglic has officially confirmed that he would be leaving the Dutch team at the start of the Giro dell'Emilia. It is not known where he is heading, but it is believes that BORA - hansgrohe and INEOS Grenadiers lead the way in a transfer that would likely be a headline for the winter and make the Slovenian also close to the best payed rider in the peloton.
