Cofidis have been busy in the transfer market. The French-based team have announced a double signing in the form of Kenny Elissonde and Ben Hermans on one-year deals.
“I wanted this new challenge and to return to a French team," said Elissonde to his new employer's official website. "I'm a climber, I like stage races. It has happened to me throughout my career to ride for my leaders but also to play my card and try to achieve the best possible result. Experience allows you to have better knowledge of yourself, to have more serenity and to support younger people too. I can't wait to reset the counters and discover a new way of working within the Cofidis team. I had Cédric Vasseur on the phone several times throughout my career and I was able to talk with riders from the team too. There is a good dynamic within the Cofidis training and I hope to help keep it going."

“I am convinced that my state of mind and my ambitions can blend with those of the team. I am particularly grateful to the Cofidis team for offering me this new opportunity. I have demonstrated in the past that I am a fairly complete runner, who appreciates the classics as much as the stage races," says 37-year-old Belgian, Hermans.
"I want to give everything for my new teammates, to put myself at the service of the leaders and, if necessary, to take my responsibilities and try my luck in my turn. I know how difficult it is to win but I hope I can reach the threshold of 20 wins. No race is easy but I want to fight, train and do everything to live up to the ambitions of my new team."

- I think you overestimate scientific knowledge and for sure the spreading of it. There are huge numbers of people in similar situations, if there were an easy solution somebody would be making big money out of it. Nerve pain can have many complex origins or be due to complex combinations of reasons. Even if you discover a reason there is not always a solution. Migraines haven’t been solved either. I have had lower back/hip nerve pains on and off for over 30 years, no kind of doctor has ever found a way to reduce, prevent or solve the problem. It may just be that some people are born with nerves that are too short or get twisted out of position during certain movements.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
- Amazing ride by her and very promising for her future. On a side note, it’s a bit worrying all these wins riders have after emotional moments in their lives, someone will come up with emotional doping at some point. Maybe give them fake news just before a big race to get hormones pumping.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
