Mark Cavendish will defend the MTN Qhubeka jersey next season. He will be joined by Mark Renshaw and Bernard Eisel but Brian Holm will stay with Etixx-Quick Step for two more years. The former rider is a sports director and and has worked alongside Cavendish during the most successful years of the Manxman's career.
"We have agreed that I will continue to Etixx-QuickStep for two more years. I've been there since HTCHighroad closed in 2012. I have spoken to some other teams, but in the end I have done what I tell my riders you must never do - I have let the emotions speak," said Holm according to TV2. "It's personal relationships. It's people I love and trust. The reality is about much more than racing. It is everything that is going on, even when there are no races. It takes a few years to build a good working relationship, so I will not leave the good thing that I have. There have been things written that I should follow Mark, and I can well understand that. But we split all up now. It hurts more than I had expected."
