CULT Energy Pro Cycling’s 14th official rider is the experienced Swede Gustav Larsson, who will join the team on a one-year contract in 2015. Larsson’s incredible record including stage wins in the Giro d’Italia, Paris-Nice and 8 participations in Grand Tours speaks of a rider with great quality and experience. Those qualities will be very important for 2015:

“It’s fantastic with yet another rider who will help setting the bar high for the team’s ambitions. He fits well into the profile we are trying to create as a team. We expect Gustav Larsson to compete for several wins in the year to come.” Sporting Director Michael Skelde states.

The rider himself is also extremely happy to join the team after a very difficult year which was not as expected due to a serious injury. “I am really happy and excited to join CULT Energy Pro Cycling for 2015. I see the possibility of this team to build up to something great”!

“For myself I started 2014 with some good races and results. Then I had a serious crash where I broke four vertebrae. I am really motivated to get back racing as competitive as possible, because racing my bike is what I love to do! I am also happy to see some old teammates already in the team. I think 2015 might well bring some surprises, so keep an eye on us next year.” Gustav Larsson adds.
