CUMMINGS EXTENDS BARLOWORLD CONTRACT THROUGH 2009

Scheldeprijs 2008 Steve Cummings

Steve Cummings has extended his contract with Barloworld through to the end of 2009. The Barloworld rider re-signed after a successful Giro d'Italia that saw him take fourth on one of the race's toughest mountain stages.

Cummings will soon return to the UK to resume track training as the British squad start their build up to the Beijing Olympics this August. Cummings has been part of the team pursuit squad since he turned senior, and although he missed out on a ride at this year's world championships in Manchester, he remains an integral part of the squad.
