Martin Kohler is still looking for a team for next season. The Swiss rider, who turned professional with the BMC Racing Team in 2008, was not retained by his team. He explains that he is very surprised by this announcement, according to Radsport News.
"I was very surprised that my contract was not renewed after seven years of service as a domestique," he said. "I could not even chase my own opportunities, which made me a little disappointed."
"I want to finally open my account, I can win races and spend time at the front," he added. "My athletic goals and my ambitions are far from exhausted."
The 29 year-old rider would have found a team for next year, but he will not say the name before the contract is officially signed.
This season, he won the stage 1 on the Giro del Trentino (team time trial) and the green jersey on the Tour de Romandie. He finished 2nd on the 2nd stage of USA Pro Challenge.
