Nys extends with Rabobank

Reigning world cyclocross champion Sven Nys has prolonged his contract with his current team, deciding to stay with Rabobank for another three years. "This is the team I feel at home with. I have mainly chosen in favour of the people I feel comfortable with," said Nys, who was courted by a number of teams since winning the world cyclocross championships in St. Wendel, Germany earlier this year.

Naturally, Rabobank CEO Theo de Rooij was delighted with the deal: "Sven had several and even better offers, and still he chose for Rabobank. I'm very happy to be able to keep the world's best cyclocross rider on board. We can offer Sven a good schedule, good equipment and good support. I'm glad that's also worth something to him."
