Former U23 World Championship runner-up Wesley Van der Linden will ride with the 'elite without contract' division of the SunWeb Projob team for the 2007-2008 'cross season. The 2003 silver medallist rode for the Chocolade Jacques professional road team for the past two years, but will now focus his attentions on cyclo-cross.

Team manager Mario de Clerc told sporza.be that he has long known of Van der Linden's talents, and wishes to give him a chance to prove himself and to possibly move up to the elite category. Van der Linden hopes to make his debut with the team on the weekend of October 20 in Belgium.
