Team LottoNL-Jumbo and Sports Director Erik Dekker will say goodbye to each other at the end of this year. The reason behind this decision is a difference in vision regarding the sportive guidance in the future. Dekker has been active for the team’s legal predecessor for many years, fourteen years as an active cyclist and afterwards as a sports director.
