Haynes to Jartazi 7-mobile

British rider Hamish Haynes has signed for Belgian continental team Jartazi 7-mobile. Being one of the most successful continental teams in Europe, the move represents a new challenge for Haynes and a step up in the level of competition.

Haynes signed his contract just before travelling to Manchester to visit friends and family. He will return to Belgium in January to train with his new teammates, which include Van Der Slagmolen, Abakoumov and Francesco Planckaert, latest in the cycling dynasty and a regular feature in the popular Belgian reality TV show, "The Planckaerts".
