News – Downing’s D-Day

Wednesday 6th of May, CULT Energy Pro Cycling will be taking on the French stage race, Four Days at Dunkerque covering five stages in the Northern part of France near the windy coastline, which is a crosswind adventure guarantee. Only three times in the past 15 years, the race has been won by a non-Frenchman and Arnaud Demare has conquered the overall win in the past two editions.

DS, Michael Skelde says: “After a fairly successful Tour de Yorkshire we are now ready for yet another stage race. Unfortunately, the team is currently slightly affected by the consequenses of crashes and we’re having difficulties completing a full line-up. However, I’m looking forward to seeing some results from some of the riders who primarily have been supporting other riders until now. The line-up consists of riders with an up-going form rate and they are very motivated. Personally, I hope for a race with plenty of opportunities for aggressive driving. The race is a very good match for a team like ours and in Russell, we have a guarantee for being able to participate in bunch sprints,” says Skelde.

The line-up: Russell Downing, Michael Reihs, Martin Mortensen, Mads Pedersen, Troels Vinther, Joel Zangerle and Christian Mager. Due to a crash yesterday, Zangle is still questionable.
