Passion and performance in women's cycling
"It is
obvious how passionate everyone is about it and that we all want to contribute
to the sustainable development of women’s cycling. The foundation is
built." (Anatol Sostmann, Director Brand at ROSE)
With the
new partnership, ROSE remains true to its concept. The aim is to make as many
people as possible aware of how much excitement and action women's cycling
races offer and with how much enthusiasm and determination the professional
female cyclists take part in the races. For young female riders, stepping up to
a professional level is still difficult. Supporting the team will raise
awareness of women's cycling and promote equality in sports.
