Alberto Losada has raced his last as a professional road cyclist, according to Spanish newspaper Marca.
The 35-year-old Spaniard was out of contract at Katusha-Alpecin and has taken the decision to end his 12-year career, though he is set to continue to ride competitively on the mountain bike.
"On the road I'm not continuing - I can assure you of that," Losada told Marca. "I'm creating a business linked to cycling and I will continue competing at a high level in marathon mountain biking."
Losada, who has never won a pro race and has spent his career working for others, turned pro with Kaiku in 2006 before spending four seasons at Caisse d'Epargne.
He moved to Katusha in 2011 and remained there ever since, becoming an important domestique for fellow Spaniard Joaquim Rodriguez.
