BMC have two main problems, their recruitment strategy and their race strategies. They seem intent on having two similar leaders for the big races, then consistently fail to manage the problems that arise from that and they are addicted to recruiting big, diesel rouleurs who don't win races when what they need is some decent climbing talent. When Brent Bookwalter is your main mountain domestique, you're in trouble.
Isn't Andy Rihs set to quit at the end of next season though? So they need a title sponsor first, as they'll not recruit the riders they need on one year deals.
