Welshman Geraint Thomas has signed a new two deal with Team Sky.
Thomas, who was the only British rider to finish the 2014 Tour De France, has signed a deal which keeps him at Sky until the end of 2016.
Speaking about his new deal, Thomas said: "I'm really happy to be staying with Team Sky for another two years. I've been here since the start and I firmly believe it is the best place for me to fulfil my potential as a bike rider.
"I feel very supported here and I'm excited about what the future holds. I'll look forward to challenging myself both on and off the bike and striving to become the very best at what I do."
Team Sky Principal Sir David Brailsford was highly delighted that Thomas had pledged his future to the team and said: "We're delighted that Geraint has re-signed for another two years. He's been with Team Sky from the start and has been essential to the success that we've had.
"Team Sky has always been built around a strong British core, developing and nurturing home-grown talent to be the best they can be - and Geraint has been at the heart of that.
"On and off the bike Geraint is an influential member of Team Sky. Not only is he a strong character but he's one of a handful of world-class riders that can do it all, whether that's on the climbs, flat, cobbles or time trials, which proves what a valuable member of the team he is.
"Over the last three weeks of the Tour de France Geraint has again underlined his qualities and has shown that he's an exceptional rider with an exciting future.
"He's a great guy, a good leader and we're delighted that he'll be a key part of the team going forward."
