Schleck Brothers say “Good Bye” to Saxo Bank team
After the biggest cycling event of the year the cyclists are ready to prepare for the next season with high hopes and passion. New teams are being made and new contracts are eager to be signed by the world’s best cyclists. The cycling teams not only sponsor the cyclists but they give them fame and the right amount of appreciation that is why athletes try their best to select the best team to meet their desires.
The young cycling sensation Andy Schleck and his elder brother Frank Schleck have announced to leave the Saxo Bank team. The report about the dynamic duo’s retirement from the Saxo Bank team has given birth to several questions. The questions about the Schleck brothers future cycling team and about the Schleck’s future are emerging from everywhere.
The Schleck brothers from Luxembourg will choose or form a new team for the next season. Both the brothers announced their retirement from Saxo Bank team in a very happy mood. They announced that their time with the Saxo Bank team was great and they enjoyed each and every bit of it but sometimes we should change our ways to achieve bigger goals in life.
The star and runner up of Tour De France, Andy Schleck expressed his views that he had a wonderful experience with the team and he will be supporting the Saxo Bank team to his fullest in the next season but will not race for the same team anymore. He admitted the fact that he has gained a matchless experience while racing with this team. He added that the five years of strong association with the team has always been special for him and he will stay as a friend of Saxo Bank team owner, Bjarne. He expressed his deep respect and love for his former team by saying it was fantastic racing with Bjarne and his support will always be with the respective team.
Now the two veteran cyclist brothers are well ready to form a new team and it is reported that the dynamic duo of Saxo Bank team is ready to hook up with Bjarne’s ex employee Brian Nygaard. Some rumours are in the air about Schleck brothers making a team with Nygaard but only time will tell the exact story. However these days the Schleck brothers are enjoying the best time of their lives as they are young and racing at the top level very impressively.
25 year old cycling ace Andy Schleck, who is considered as one of the best cyclists in the world is also carrying all the credits of being the youngest best cyclist of the world. The second spot holder of Tour de France is ready to give his best for his new team. His elder brother Frank Schleck who is suffering from an injury is confident as well to meet the needs of the upcoming season. Frank admitted that his 8 years with the former team was one of the best experiences of his life and they had already planned their retirement to switch to another team before the France tour.
The current impressive success of Andy Schleck is news to enjoy for the Schleck brothers but their retirement has definitely given a strong blow to the Saxo Bank. Bjarne who is also known as Riis has already admitted the fact and expressed his views by saying that Saxo Bank team is incomplete and colourless without the Schleck brothers.
Just like Schleck brothers, the Spaniard, Tour de France winner, Alberto Contador has also announced his retirement from Astana team and he will be cycling for a newer team in the next season. Well whatever happens should happen for the best as the viewers cannot wait to see their favourite cyclists competing against each other again to their fullest.
