Alex Moos received special recognition from BMC and BMC Racing Team Owner Andy Rihs on the occasion of his 12th and final participation in the Tour de Romandie.

'A Great Farewell'

The Swiss professional was honored before the start of the final stage of the race, which passed close to his home in Miége, and the town of his birthplace, Sierre. Rihs and Mike Hürlimann, Chief Executive Officer of BMC, presented Moos with a special edition BMC pro machine - one which will soon be available for sale. "With this stage being close to his hometown, the presentation attracted many fans and supporters of Alex to wish him a great farewell and a successful last stage at the tour," Hürlimann said. Moos was the BMC Racing Team's best-placed finisher at the six-day race in 32nd overall.
