Team Volksbank had two reasons to celebrate this week. It was awarded its UCI Professional Continental license for the coming season, and youngster Philipp Ludescher extended his contract for a year, the team announced Wednesday.

The license is "proof that we have done our homework," said team manager Thomas Kofler. "The team has a sound economic basis. Things can continue like this."
