All good stories must come to an end. Such is the case between IAM Cycling and Sylvain Chavanel, whose contract will expire at the end of the season. The multiple time trial champion of France will not be wearing the IAM Cycling jersey in 2016. Michel Thétaz, the founder of IAM Cycling and CEO of IAM Funds, soberly explained in a press release:
"For next year, we want to have our pack of wolves more compact and prominent at the front of the peloton in order to usher our sprinters to the finish line more effectively. As a result of this reevaluation, we decided not to extend Sylvain Chavanel’s contract. We are certainly aware of everything that Sylvain has brought to this team. The collaboration has exceeded our expectations. We will never forget his fantastic victory at the GP de Plouay last August, nor his overall qualities as a racer as well as a human being. We have really had two wonderful years together with him. I reiterate my thanks to him for his professionalism and wish him the very best for his future."
