Geoffroy Lequatre of France, the 2008 Tour of Britain champion who's also known for his passion for fashion as a designer, has signed with Team RadioShack to ride with Lance Armsrtong in 2010.
Lequatre, 28, who currently rides for the soon-to-be-defunct Agritubel, has been a professional since 2002 and has also raced with Credit Agricole and Cofidis.
With the signing of Lequatre, RadioShack's squad for 2010 is currently 16 riders, I think.
Here's the list of signed riders Team Radio Shack to date:
Lance Armstrong (Astana), Janez Brajkovic (Astana), Ben Hermans (Topsport Vlaanderen-Mercator), Christopher Horner (Astana), Markel Irizar (Euskaltel-Euskadi), Levi Leipheimer (Astana), Nikolas Maes (Topsport Vlaanderen-Mercator), Sergio Paulinho (Astana), Grégory Rast (Astana), Sébastien Rosseler (Quick Step), Ivan Rovny (Katusha), Jose Rubiera (Astana), Gert Steegmans (Katusha), Tomas Vaitkus (Astana), Daryl Impey (Barloworld)
Does anyone know if any other riders have signed with the new squad?
