There have been some seismic comings and goings this off-season with several major riders breaking their contracts, and plenty more have headed for pastures new as their deals expire.<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"elk-seasonal\" data-url=\"\" href=\"\" target=\"_blank\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-hl-processed=\"none\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"86fc401b-1773-4a62-8938-8af6695723d8-2\" class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\">But how closely have you been paying attention to the movers and shakers in road cycling, and can you guess these 25 rider transfers for the 2026 season?
