Czech Ondrej Sosenka, holder of the hour record, is slated to sign with polish team Intel-Action. In the next days the 31 year-old should sign with Kosmala Piotr, team manager of the continental (third-tier) squad.
"I have to admit that we had a lot of negotiations, also with top level teams but Ondrej had wanted to select a team where he can feel like a leader, and one that would support his bid to better the hour record, currently at 49.700 kilometres" said the Czech's manager, Antonello Dalla Corte.
July 19, 2005, Sosenka broke Chris Boardman's five year-old hour record, by going 259 metres better.
