Edvald Boasson Hagen (Rudsbygd, Norway) 21

Young Edvald is probably one of the most talented riders of the future. He comes to Team High Road with a long list of victories to his name from 2007 including the overall and four stages in Ringerike GP, three stages in Tour de Bretagne, a stage win in the Tour of Normandie, the overall and two stages in Paris-Corrèze and a stage win in Tour of Ireland, not to mention his title as Norwegian National Time Trial Champion. At 20 years of age this is quite an achievement and the world is just waiting to see what he can do in the years to come.

2008 Victories

• Three stage wins Tour of Britain
• Stage win Eneco Tour
  
• National Champion
• 1st place Criterium International

Cycling is so many things. It's exciting - so much can happen in a race, it's very tactical and you have to be persistent.

I want to ride for the Team High Road because it is a very good team and they really want to take care of the young riders.
