forgive my ignorance, but does Barloworld not get invited to the spring classics?

They usually get invited to them, but I have never seen them at PN before. Maybe they will be at Tirreno Adriatico, pretty much an Italian team after all.

I didn't want to bring this up, but feel impelled to because I genuinely would like an answer...

Wondering about Astana for this ride. It this an 'invite' ride or do the teams select which rides they want to participate in, apply, and get approved?






**note, I don't like Astana and couldn't give a rat's ass who is on the team at this point. People who joined in for this new season should've known better.
