“Gustav Larsson”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

Gustav Erik Larsson (born 20 September 1980 in Gemla) is a Swedish professional road racing cyclist for UCI Continental team {{ct|CUL}}. He previously rode for UCI Professional Continental team {{ct|IAM}} in 2013-14^[1] and {{ct|VCD|2012}} in 2012.^[2] He is a very skilled time trialist; he has won his national title seven times, and has taken silver medals at the Beijing Olympics in 2008 and the 2009 World Championships in Mendrisio.

Professional career

On the international scene he represented Team Saxo Bank, and in Sweden he represented Skoghalls CK-Hammarö. Larsson began cycling when he was 14 years and, having shown great talent and dedication, turned pro just 7 years later. Team {{ct|FAS|2003}} was his first employer, and when the team shut down in 2005 he moved on to Team {{ct|FDJ|2006}}. He rode for one year for Française des Jeux before moving again to the Swedish-Belgian team {{ct|UNI|2007}}, which had gained a wild card to the UCI ProTour in 2006. But just as the 2007 season started the team ran into trouble with the Amaury Sport Organisation who made it clear that Unibet.com would not be invited to Paris–Nice or the Tour de France. Other major race organizers followed suit, which resulted in Unibet.com not getting any major invitations. The team shut down shortly thereafter. {{ct|SAX|2008a}} showed interest in Larsson, and he rode for them in 2008. After the 2008 season, it was reported that Larsson had signed with Caisse d'Epargne for 2009, but he continued with Team Saxo Bank. He remained with the team until the end of 2011, when he moved to {{ct|VCD|2012|nolink=yes}}.^[2] Larsson left {{ct|VCD|2012|nolink=yes}} at the end of the 2012 season, and joined the new Swiss-based team {{ct|IAM|2013}} team for the 2013 season.^[3] Larsson signed for the {{ct|CUL}} team for the 2015 season.^[4]

In June 2007 Larsson won the Swedish time trial championship. The victory came a day after his girlfriend collided with a car and sustained severe damage to the head. He also won the Swedish time trial championship in 2006, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2015.

In March 2015 Larsson made an attempt on the hour record at a Revolution meeting at Manchester Velodrome. He failed to beat Rohan Dennis' world record of 52.491 km but his distance of 50.016 km was a new Swedish hour record.^[5]

Personal life

He resides in Besano, Italy with his wife Veronica Andrèasson who is a Swedish road racing cyclist as well.
