"On several occasions, Nick (Nuyens) has demonstrated his abilities in the spring classics and he will be a good fit for the team when we take on the cobblestone races in Belgium and France next spring. With a solid and loyal team behind him, he is a dark horse in terms of reaching the top spot on the podium during the classics where he will be our leader," Team Saxo Bank-SunGard owner Bjarne Riis commented.

Nick Nuyens has previously won Kuurne-Brussels-Kuurne, Omloop Het Volk and Paris-Brussels. In 2008 he was second in the Ronde van Vlaandern.
