Emma Pooley announced Wednesday that she has signed a contract with her former team Lotto Soudal Ladies for the remainder of the 2016 season.
The Briton will begin her stint with the team at Great Britain's time trial championships on Thursday in Stockton on Tees. She will then toe the start line at the Giro Rosa on July 1.
“Just in time for tomorrow’s National Time Trial Championships: I’m delighted to announce that I’ve signed with the Lotto-Soudal Ladies’ Team for the second half of the 2016 season!
“I’m looking forward to being reunited with great teammates from the Lotto team in 2014 and Claudia Lichtenberg from Cervélo Test Team days. And I’m grateful that team directors Dany Schoonbaert and Liesbet de Vocht are giving me this opportunity to race with the team again – they supported and encouraged me so well in 2014.”
Pooley raced with the team during the 2014 season. Before that, she raced for teams Bigla Cycling, AA Drink, Garmin-Cervelo and Cervelo Test Team.
Pooley retired from professional bike racing in 2014 and turned her attention to duathlon and triathlon. She made a comeback this spring with a focus on securing a spot with the British team for the Olympic Games.
