Nick Schultz finds relief at Israel-Premier Tech after B&B Hotels-KTM's fiasco
CyclingSaturday, 24 December 2022 at 17:03
Nick Schultz has signed a contract with Israel-Premier Tech. Originally, the Australian was supposed to join B&B Hotels-KTM, but the team shut down due to financial problems.
“I’m really grateful to IPT for offering me a contract so late in the year. I’m very excited to join a group of great people where I’ll find some familiar faces. I hope to play an important role in helping the team wherever I can and also be ambitious, trying to achieve some results to repay the confidence that the team showed in me. All in all, I’m just really looking forward to being with everybody at the races and getting stuck in,” says Schultz.
Kjell Carlström of Israel-Premier Tech wanted to start the season with 28 riders but decided Schultz would be a good addition. "Nick, like Stephen Williams came on the market very late. But he was a rider we were immediately interested in. Nick is a great climber and will play a key role for our classification riders and leaders in the classics," Carlstrom said.
At the Herald Sun Tour in 2019, Schultz won his first professional race on home soil, followed by a summit finish victory at the Sazka Tour in 2021." He will also pursue his own ambitions. He has proven that is within his capabilities after almost winning a Tour de France stage on his debut this year. We look forward to helping Nick continue to grow as a rider and take on an important role in the team,” concluded Carlstrom.

- Exactly. Remco won 3 WT races/stages last year compared to Pogocar's 19. Remco's single stage win in last years TdF earned him a meager 12 seconds over Pogocar who shellac'd him by 9 minutes in GC.Sweep21-12-2024
- Fortunately and as you point out, more than one strategy is possible and worth trying and I’m sure all concerned riders are well informed and counselled on this subject and don’t need such basic personal advice through media from an outsider.Mistermaumau21-12-2024
- The main SPOTY award is "decided" by public vote but the BBC "expert panel" decide who you can choose from, that choice has an equal split of genders and is focussed on the sports BBC show and a disabled athlete. Oh yea the ubiquitous "Pub Games" candidate there too, Darts and Snooker are not sports. The other awards are decided by the "Expert Panel" again it's about the sports BBC show, cycling has had it. Cav got his for his years and achievements in the sport, not just that 35th TDF win. Unless the BBC get access to Pro Cycling it will never feature "adequately" on SPOTYslappers6621-12-2024

- Avoiding him is a good strategy, you get more wins and then you can compete in the TDF relatively relaxed. Pit yourself against Pogi and not only there will be no wins, it will be considerable mental setbackabstractengineer21-12-2024
