British Continental women’s team Lifeplus-Wahoo are hoping to step up a tier next season and become a ProTeam from 2025. The new tier will be introduced for the first time next year, serving as a second professional division of women’s cycling teams, and bridging the gap from Continental to WorldTour.
Coming off the back of the squad not gaining an invite to this year’s Tour de France Femmes, general manager Tom Varney confirmed the ambition. “That’s the aim for us,” he said. “It’ll be our 10th year next year also, and I think we deserve to be at that level. We have to finalise a few things and see what the regulations say, but the aim is to be there.”
