Currently present in Canada to compete in the Grand Prix of Quebec and Montreal, Christophe Riblon has extended his contract until 2016 with the AG2R LA MONDIALE Pro Cycling Team.
The recent winner at the Alpe d’Huez in the last Tour de France said: “I’m very proud to wear during three additional years the colours of the AG2R LA MONDIALE team. I want to thank Vincent Lavenu and our sponsors who trust me for nine years and who are still present at my side. I want to build on the great results I obtained this summer and to pay the team back for the trust they have shown. I know I’m able to obtain excellent results on World Tour one-week races. I also think to one day races as Milano-San Remo.”
Vincent Lavenu, the manager of the AG2R LA MONDIALE team, said: “I’m pleased to have reached an agreement with Christophe. He not only accomplished an amazing feat this year but he is also an essential and an important rider in our team. He has a long story with us. He always defended the colors of the AG2R LA MONDIALE team with enthusiasm and honor and this agreement is natural.”
