Doug Ryder working behind the scenes to regain WorldTour license

According to the report by Velonews, the former general manager of Dimension Data and NextHash, Doug Ryder, is working on upgrading his team to Proteam again.

Team Qhubeka currently rides as a Continental team. It lost its WorldTour license due to a lack of financial support. This pushed some big names to leave the group, including Giacomolo Nizzolo, Domenico Pozzovivo, and Victor Campenaerts.

He plans to step back into the game with a new rider to help the team recapture its WorldTour team status. However, when asked about his plans, he did not provide any information. "I have no comment. I need more time," Ryder said.
