Maxime Monfort is leaving Cofidis for Team Columbia. The Belgian rider has signed a two-year contract with the American team, according to his website, maxime-monfort.be.
The 25-year-old still had time left on his contract with the French team, but he has "been freed from his obligations to Cofidis," he said,
