Team Jayco AlUla have signed experienced Belgian Amaury Capiot on a two-year deal as the Australian outfit continues to bolster its Classics group.
The 32-year-old is a seasoned campaigner with more than 10 years of racing in the pro peloton under his belt. Armed with a fast finish, Capiot is a threat in the tough one-day races in his native Flanders.
The GreenEDGE Cycling management team has focused on building a strong group for the one-day classics heading into 2026 and they see Capiot and his experience as a key component moving forward.
Amaury Capiot
“I am really motivated for 2026, and I look forward to riding in the colours of Team Jayco Alula. My role will change from race to race but the main goal will always be the same, winning as many races as possible with the team. Hopefully, I can add my part to the success of the team and help us achieve a lot of victories together. Motivation is not just about working hard; it’s about lifting one another up so together we can cross the line first.”
Brent Copeland (General Manager)
“As we look to build our Classics group for 2026 and beyond, we were looking for riders with experience and with Amaury we have that. He has been in the professional peloton for a long time and has been racing the Belgian classics for more than 10 years.
Experience and knowledge are something you need for the tough one-day races, so adding somebody like Amaury to the squad alongside our younger riders makes sense and we’re happy to welcome him into the team.”
