It's great that in spite of offers from other top teams Steve has decided in favour of us.
Floyd has informed me that in spite of various offers from other teams he would like to stay with us. Naturally, that's a great compliment for us and motivation at the same time.
We want to form one unit for the future. That means we're striving to have a mix of already successful riders and young talents hungry for success. We're getting very close to that goal with the team that we've assembled up till today.
But we'll be sending a competitive team to the Giro.
The goal at the beginning of the season was to be one of the top five teams. That there is only one team that is better than us in the final tally is much more than we could have hoped for.
