Dan McLay's 2017 season might have stalled somewhat after a flying start, but he concluded it on a high note on Sunday by winning the Tour de l'Eurometropole.
24 hours later, the 25 year old British sprinter announced he was joining EF Education First-Drapac for the 2018 season, stepping up to WorldTour level with Jonathan Vaughters’ team.
“I’m really happy to step up to the WorldTour, and I think this is the perfect team for me as I make that move to the top level,” said McLay in a statement from the US-registered WorldTour team.
“This is a crucial moment in my career. I’m getting to the age where I’m no longer considered a young and developing rider. It’s time for me to perform before the grey hairs start to appear.”
His ambition for 2018 is simple.
“I hope to find a winning formula and get into a habit of winning,” McLay said. “That’s the main goal for next year.”
