📝Baptiste Huyet -> Bike Aid

Baptiste Huyet is another very strong signing by Bike Aid & should slot into a leading role.

Huyet is a good climber who should get the team results in stage races and slot into the Schiffer role next to Yemane. Also will help with their usual French invites.

Official confirmation by the team that Miká Heming is back at ATT Investments.

It's the team he rode for before making the step to Tudor. One of the absolute best Conti teams with a very strong roster.
Let's see if Heming can claim some wins and get another shot at being pro.

📝Eike Behrens -> Lotto Kern-Haus PSD Bank

Lotto tried to sign Behrens, the best amateur in the Bundesliga for two years, last year already and now managed to.

Behrens is a good cross rider and has his strenghts on hilly terrain. Should still have a good margin of improvment.

📝Jakob Lauer -> Bike Aid

With Jakob Lauer the team signs a local Junior who is stepping up into the Elite.

Lauer has some solid international and national results especially on rolling and hilly courses. He will probably need some time to adapt at the new level though.

📝Arno Wallenborn -> Lotto Kern-Haus PSD Bank

With Wallenborn the team gets a real GC rider for the hard stage races and an option for difficult one-day races.

Wallenborn has the potential to turn pro and has had some great results. He will try to win next year to make that step.

Jesko Wrobel -> Lotto Kern-Haus PSD Bank

First confirmed new rider for Lotto is the former speed skater Jesko Wrobel.

Wrobel has been racing his bike for two year with lots of good results at amateur level in Germany & Belgium. Strong rider, survives hills & has a decent finish.

Kristiāns Belohvoščiks -> Bike Aid

Another very interesting international signing for Bike Aid.

Belohvoščiks has been developing steadily in the smaller European and Asian races. He has a fast sprint and also has the engine to handle some hills well and compete against smaller fields.

Oscar Schempp -> Bike Aid

With Schempp Bike Aid sign a young und relatively inexperienced rider who has shown some good promise.

Only racing his bike since 2023, Schempp has some good results in flat and lumpy terrain. He could make some good steps in a slighly bigger team as Bike Aid.

📝Leopold Beirig -> Rembe rad-net

Leopold Beirig is the third Junior announced today by Rembe and the only one not doing any track.

Beirig had a solid time as a Junior winning national races & the highlight of coming 7th in Gent-Wevelgem. He'll need time and should mostly be a helper.

📝Victor Wedekind -> Rembe rad-net

Wedekind is another Junior who combines track and road and thus feels like a natural Rembe signing.

Wedekind won a UCI race & several Bundesliga races as a Junior. He has a good TT, is explosive and could develop into a really good racer.

📝Hugo Esch -> Rembe rad-net

Hugo Esch is stepping up to the Elite ranks as the reigning German Junior ITT champ.

He is a good track rider, part of the national team, has a good TT and should be useful in leadouts. Imo he will probably take some time to adapt to the Elite.

Rembe rad-net will be creating a women's Continental team.

It will run alongside their existing men's team and will have similar goals: to promote German talent both on the road and on the track.

Further infos about the name and roster in the coming days.

📝Joonas Puuraid -> Bike Aid

First year U23 Puuraid will be Bike Aid's 2nd new signing for 2026 and will bolster the international core of the team.

Puuraid is coming off a strong Junior season & has his strenghts in classics terrain. A fast finisher, survives some hills & has a good TT.

📝Victor Vidal -> Bike Aid

First new signing for Bike Aid shows they still like both their French riders and MTBers.

Vidal is a good punchy climber who has countless good results against the top of the French amateur peloton. He should have no problems performing at good Conti level!

Confirming the rumours, German Junior Moritz Mauss is making the step-up into the U23 program of UAE.

He made a big leap in performance this year and has an interesting profile being pretty fast but surviving hilly terrain very well. A good racer too, so will be interesting to see him develop.
October 23, 2025 at 12:24 PM
Looks like the RBH Rookies team will again be one of the strongest Conti/Devo teams around in 2026.

They signed Max Bock who was in Auto Eder for a year before & getting Magagnotti is a nice coup. Good to see Putz getting another year as well.

Looking forward to see Andersen on a new level too.

Oliver Mattheis scoring another UCI win in what is by far the best season of his career.

Now another 10 stages for him and the team to try and defend the jersey. With Vinzent Dorn also placed high up the GC they have another card to play as well.

The biggest U23 stage race is back & the 🇩🇪 team are clearly underdogs. Bock & Brenner could maybe go for GC but both are good if inconsistent climbers.

Keßler is the best shout for a big result via sprints while Koech is a good stage hunter. Fietzke/Leidert should be in a free roll.

The biggest U23 stage race for women is back & in Justyna Czapla the 🇩🇪 team will have a GC contender who could enter the Top 10 if all goes to plan.

Riedmann, Lantzsch, Messemer could all get a result on the flatter stages or from a group. Will be hard against a stacked field though.

Another nice win for Aubin Sparfel at Tour Alsace today.

Attacked and rode up to the Schoofs/Fietzke duo, dropped Fietzke and won the sprint. Will be an exciting rider once he hits the WT.
August 3, 2025 at 2:47 PM
Another nice sprint result for Jonathan Rottmann today at Tour Alsace.

He's been collecting some good results this year and has developed a bit more consistency. Now he just lacks that UCI win to really get his name out.

Nice win for Tobias Nolde and Benotti-Berthold on todays first stage at Dookola Mazowsza.

Hasn't been the best season so far both for him and the team so this hopefully will lead to some new confidence and more results.
