But he has those new Stevens all painted in the rainbow stripe colors.

Sniper must be difficult to deal with. First Aqua Blue and now this.

i guess i'll see what he's up to this weekend in Waterloo.
pretty sure many of what were SniperCycling's sponsors will continue to support Wout until the Lotto-JumboNL deal begins.
i also wouldn't be surprised if his WorldTour contract ends up starting 3/1/19 or something.

this jibes with people saying he/his family is rich

the pittance pro cycling pays is irrelevant to results

He's already a Trek athlete of sorts having been supplied with Bontrager shoes for a few seasons now

Digging this one back up based on the latest in the WVA contract saga. Both sides digging in deeper. WvA seems confident the Belgian courts won't find fault but if they do Lotto could be on the hook for big money. Wonder if that will change their position?

UCI seems to have cleared him to look for a team. Classics season just got a lot better. I expect his old team to dig in hard and try to squeeze as much money out of him as possible.
