38 year old Fabio Baldato is not going to ride his last few years on a continental squad. Baldato is moving back to the ProTour signing a one year deal with Lampre. The old man is riding for Tenax Salmilano where he won a stage in the Tour of Austria. Tenax Salmilano teammate Paolo Bossoni who has been red hot in the Italian one days races during August is rumored to join him at Lampre.

Two names that have been in the pro peloton for years risk an early retirement or a year off of the bike. The Sony-Ericssson debacle has left these two without a contract and at this point in the off-season, not much hope on getting on a large team. Roberto Petito formerly of Fassa-Bortolo and a 13 year veteran of the Pro Peloton and Fabio Baldato a 15 year veteran will be hoping to maybe catch back on with a team where they can help younger riders. Other riders that may be left out of the loop include Alessandro Bertolini, Massimo Codol and Massimo Giunti.
