Matthew Goss, who joined ONE Pro Cycling this winter, is readt to take a new role in his newteam. The Australian, a 2012 Milan-San Remo and 2011 world championship silver medallist, started his 10th season in the professional peloton and wants to win again.
"I have got to, otherwise it is too hard to get on the bike every day, isn’t it?", he told Cyclingnews. He is currently at the Tour de Langkawi. The Dubai Tour was his first race of this season. "This is my 10th year pro. I have a lot to give to a team that is growing and wanting to learn. I still think there is a race win or two in the legs. I have just got to take the opportunities when they come and try to make the most of them."
With ONE Pro Cycling, he will not have the possibility to race a lot of WorldTour level races. But he is happy with the race program the team has. "The emphasis is going to be on a lot of the English races. The Tour de Yorkshire and Tour of Britain are obviously big targets for the team, but we have some [other] great races. We have some races [in Belgium] next weekend and the weekend after... the Criterium International [in France.]"
His main goal will be the Tour de Yorkshire in May. "I really want to be hitting good form when we come back to Europe. The Tour de Yorkshire is a big goal for the team, so I would really like to be going at my best for that time of the season."
