The so-called silly season is well under way as riders and teams make future plans, changes and transfers ahead of the 2020 season. In fact, 2020 marks a particularly special year whereby the UCI will launch the brand new two-tiered teams system that will change the landscape of professional women's cycling.

The two levels of teams are classified as WorldTeams and Continental Teams, and the transfer market is swirling with possibilities as riders and management reach contract agreements.
