168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Thor Hushovd doesn't seem to regret leaving 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Garmin-Cervelo. Despite a highly-successful Tour de France, the former World Champion wasn't entirely satisfied with his time at the team, and will ride for rival American team 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:BMC Racing Team as of 2012.

H♔e only ended up there, he told Procycling.no, because of the merger of the Garmin and Cervelo teams. “I had my contract with Cervelo. They dra🌳gged me along in the package to Garmin.”

Hushovd was unablꦅe to meet his major goal of the year, winning one of the Spring C♚lassics. “It was arranged for me to win a Classic.  The conditions and luck were such that it did not work out.”

He made up for the lack of success in the early part of the year at the Tour. He 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:pulled on the leader's yellow jersey after his team won the second-stage team time trial, holding on to it for seven stages. The Norwegian then went on to 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:win two individual stages.

There have been rumours all season🍎 that Hushovd was not happ💝y at the team or with team manager Jonathan Vaughters, although both publicly denied any problems. 

Now, though, Hushovd says, “I was not very close to staying. They came to💖 me very la✤te to say they wanted me. So I moved my focus, and a change was something I wanted.

“There were seve🐠ral offers throughout the season. I reckoned up all the pluses and minuses. BMC ended up with many pluses, so I chose to go with them.”

There is no enmity between Husꦜ𝐆hovd and Vaughters, though. “We are on speaking terms,” the Norwegian said.

Hushovd acknowledged that one problem was actually his own fault. He did not receive a bonus for winning the 2010 World Championship. “I signed a contract with Cervelo without a World Championship bonus and it's my fault. It's something I've sai🌳d all along.”
