From tomorrow, in Baal, Zdenek Stybar will begin his last weeks as a professional cyclist. The 38-year-old Czech will do so in the colors of his individual team. At the Cyclocross World Championships on February 4, Stybar will finish his career ahead of him.
Zdenek Stybar was already on a farewell trip to China and Hong Kong this fall.
After an unfair battle with injuries, the 38-year-old Czech did not receive a contract extension from his club Jayco-AlUla.
Stybar briefly discussed with a Czech team about staying in the group for another year, but the collaboration did not materialize.
Stybar has planned his retirement from cycling on Sunday 4 February, when he will wear his jersey number for the last time at the Cyclocross World Championships in Tabor (Czech Republic).
Since Stybar is no longer allowed to run in the Jayco-AlUla jersey from January 1, he created an individual team.
Tomorrow he will be seen for the first time in Baal with the black and white shirt with the name Stybar on it. The three-time cyclocross world champion will then plow through the mud on a Ridley cross bike.
“For Zdenek it means a return to his origins, because Ridley is the bike on which he achieved his greatest successes,” we read in a statement.
