French rider David Deroo is set to join the Skil-Shimano cycling team as a stagiaire in mid-August. The 21 year-old, who hails from near Roubaix in northern France, raised his profile this season in the Circuit des Ardennes, where he earned a third place finish on stage four, and the Tour de Bretagne, where he won a stage.
"I'm delighted to get this chance and I'm highly motivated to do well in the pro peloton," said the young Frenchman.
