After a strong third place on stage 2 of Tour de l’Ain, his first race as a stagiaire with Cofidis, Jamie Meehan signed a three-year professional contract with the French WorldTour team.
The Irish U23 road race champion claimed his first podium in his first race with Cofidis, winning the sprint from a seven-rider chase group in the Jura mountains. He ultimately finished 14th overall and third in the best young rider classification at the end of the three-day stage race.
