Lifeplus Wahoo Choose SunGod
Women's Continental Squad supported by SunGod
Lifeplus Wahoo is Britain's most successful Women's Cycling Team. Founded in 2016 with the driving principal to create a happy and supportive environment where riders can develop and reach their true potential, irrespective of age, experience or status.
An international Team with a big British heart and widely acknowledged as one of the world’s most successful cycling development programmes. As one of the two best Women’s Continental teams, they will start their eighth season with automatic invitations to all Women’s World Tour races. The team motto is #ColourTheRoad, which encapsulates their vibrancy and personality both on and off the bike. They race their bikes to empower and inspire others.
As one of the UK's most successful teams, Lifeplus Wahoo have shown grit and determination to maintain their presence despite multiple setbacks. With this latest roster, the team are looking to consolidate and grow, develop another crop of talented riders and give them a pathway to improve, and a shopwindow to help them grow.
It's been a proven route to success, with the team hosting a star-studded list of top talent. Former riders include last year's British National Champion Alice Towers, multiple Olympic gold medal winner Elinor Barker and former women's hour record holder, Joss Lowden.
In recent years, this role in developing women riders has been recognised, resulting in being one of a select few teams to be represented at the inaugural Tour de France femmes in 2022 as well as the first Women's Paris-Roubaix. Going again in 2023, the team look to make sure they carry the flag for the next generation.
Two of their most promising hopes lay with British riders Maddie Leech and April Tacey. The latter is coming up to her third year with the team, having scored early career wins in the inaugral virtual Tour de France Femmes at the height of the pandemic.
Maddie Leech has shown promise on the track at the Commonwealth games but has also taken junior national titles in time trialling - a sure sign of a solid engine, and a potential to grow into a powerful rider.
"We've been on the scene, working with riders to offer a safe and performance focused space in which people can develop for the past 10 years. With SunGod, we're excited to give our riders clarity on the road as well as their individual pathway in the sport."
