Eric Marcotte, the 2014 US pro road champion and 2015 US pro criterium champion, has signed with Cylance-Incycle for the 2017 season, the US Continental team announced today.
Marcotte, who won his championships during two season with the now-defunct Team SmartStop, rode with Team Jamis this year and ended his season with a win at the Winston-Salem Criterium in September. Team Jamis announced earlier this year it would not continue next season.
"I'm grateful to get the chance to race and work with these guys," Marcotte said in a statement released with today's announcement. "I always hope to be able to contribute to the team’s success both on and off the bike. Looking forward to the year ahead."

Marcotte also recently finished second to Holowesko-Citadel's Oscar Clark in the Reading 120, the only non-Holowesko rider to crack the top five. He also won the criterium at the Tour of the Gila and was second at the Winston-Salem Classic.
Cylance-Incycle director Hilton Clarke said Marcotte has an "amazing ability to target major events and deliver."
"He is one of the most professional riders with an amazing attention to detail," Clarke said of Marcotte, who is also a chiropractor. "I look forward to him sharing his knowledge in nutrition and training with the younger riders on the team, and even putting my back straight after the long day behind the wheel."
