Team media release

Cervélo TestTeam has announced the signing of Emilie Aubry, the final rider to be signed for 2009. The nineteen year-old Chevenez native is considered one of the biggest talents in Switzerland. She was third in the 2008 national road championships of Switzerland and also third in the overall young riders ranking for the Grande Boucle 2008.

"On our team we are always thinking about the future," said Manel Lacambra, Directeur Sportif. "Our goal for the next few years is to build a strong team with experienced and talented riders. We watched Emilie closely last year and decided she has the right stuff for our team; very professional, great potential with the ability to improve in cycling and she is a nice person. She is also a talented climber and is fast. This season Emilie will get a "relaxed" calendar, giving her some time to improve and get more racing experience and most of all, that she enjoys cycling."

Aubrey has signed a one-year contract with the team. Her first race for the team will be the Prix des Vins Henri Valloton Fully on April 5.
