Veteran German rider Jens Voigt, who will turn 42 next month, has said he intends to carry on in the sport until the end of the 2014 season.
"No No- no retirement yet!!" Voigt wrote on Twitter on Friday. "I will happily ride that new bike a whole new saison next year - Down Under, Europe, Asia and again Amerika...."
"It will take me all of next year to slowly say good bye and get my mind around the fact that i will retire end of next year... But not yet!" added Voigt, of the RadioShack team, who will carry the name Trek next season.
Voigt, who was born on September 17, 1971, turned professional in 1997 and has since won two stages on the Tour de France, in 2001 and 2006.
He was the oldest rider in the peloton on this year's Tour.
