News – Handley & Ebsen sign for One Pro Cycling
Richard Handley makes the move from JLT Condor after four successful years with the British Continental team. With three UCI stage wins to his name Richard was also 10th at the inaugural Tour de Yorkshire and 5th at the Tour of Korea this year.
At just twenty-five years of age, Richard is an exciting prospect with huge potential for results in some of the harder, hillier stage races ONE Pro Cycling will be targeting in the new season.
Handley said; “I’m very happy and privileged to be able to join ONE Pro Cycling for 2016, the team’s professionalism and great attitude towards racing has been very clear right from the outset this season. The step to Pro-Continental highlights the drive within the team and I’m very happy to be part of it. I’ve had four great years with JLT Condor and would like to thank John Herety for getting me to a position where I feel ready to take on this challenge. I’m eager to get stuck into winter training with the help of Steve Benton and James McCallum. With the support and experience of the team I’ll be ready for a hard but hopefully prosperous 2016â€.
ONE Pro Cycling conducted a rigorous recruitment process to determine the team for 2016. Danish Rider John Ebsen came to light due to his exceptional power data, which highlighted him as a real talent and prospect for the mountains.
“I am very happy to announce that I sign a one year contract with ONE Pro Cycling. I have a very strong feeling that there will be much success within this organised and professional team. I look forward to working with Matt Prior and his team to see what they can get out of me as a rider. ONE Pro Cycling will be new to Pro Conti level but if you look at the set up they have had this year then they can only go to the stars.
The team wants the best for the riders and I hear they have the best equipment and support lined up for us. My 2015 has been an up and down experience but I am full of hope and I look forward to a great 2016. I am sure that ONE Pro Cycling and I will get to the next level together†said John Ebsen.
