CULT Energy-Stölting Group continues their build-up for 2016 by announcing the signing of the experienced German all-rounder Fabian Wegmann. 35 year-old Wegmann has agreed on a 1-year contract and takes on his 15th season as a professional. With three national road race championships, numerous wins in one-day races and stages races, the Giro d'Italia mountains classification and several spring classic top-10 results under his belt, Wegmann has been and will continue to be a key figure at CULT Energy-Stölting Group in 2016. 

Fabian Wegmann says:

“I’m happy to sign one more year with the team and to be a part of this new project. I’m really proud of how the team performed in the first year at Pro Continental level. From the very first race, we continuously had at least one rider who did a top result, especially in the stage races. With the new signings for 2016, we even have a stronger roster so I’m sure that we will have a lot more victories than this year. With my experience over the last 14 years as a pro rider, I hope to be able to play an important role in the team."

Naturally, DS André Steensen is looking forward to continuing working with Wegmann:

“I’m very happy that we have Fabian on board next year. His many years as a top level professional provide us with crucial experience in a fairly young team. And in addition, it also provides the opportunity for a rematch in the spring campaign as Fabian was held back by accidents and illness this year. I believe that Fabian still has the ability to compete with the best in a race like Amstel Gold Race thanks to his punch and ability to predict the races. Besides, he will take an important role on the team next year as a mentor for our young riders who will be able to receive a lot of knowledge from Fabian as one of the most experienced riders in the peloton when it comes to the undulating spring classics
