“It is the feeling of success that motivates me,” says Filippo Fortin. He loves the competition and the test of strength. That’s how he caught our eye a few years ago at the Red Hook Criteriums. In the meantime he also raced in the World Tour and we are happy to introduce him as our first new rider for 2022. Welcome to the Pushbikers, Filippo!
Our Pushbikers Grand Tour: Three tours in three weeks. At the end, the Slovakia Tour in the shadow of the superhero Peter Sagen. What did we experience, learn and win? Here you can find a summary of the exertion, great emotion and TV time on Eurosport.
We are proud of our Pushbikers! The Challenge Ciclista Mallorca demanded a lot from our road riders in terms of sport, but also offered a lot. The four days of racing brought forth many things: anticipation and excitement, tension and exhaustion. Snapshots that accompany us as a team and always bring us back down to earth. The here and now, what is the team already capable of, and what is still ahead of us? One thing is certain: steep paths motivate!
A highlight in our road racing calendar: the Challenge Ciclista Mallorca. A great opportunity and a huge challenge for the Maloja Pushbikers. Sporting at the highest level, with teams from the World Tour and Pro Tour, with demanding routes on the island, with extremely strong international competition.
Already at the one-day race GP Rhodes ( UCI 1.2) Mikà Heming could record a remarkable fifth place. This was followed by a top 20 position in the prologue and 3rd place at the end of the first stage for Heming. At the end of the Rhodes Tour, the Maloja Pushbikers finished 7th in the team classification and 17th for Corey Davis. Sporting Director Rupert Hödlmoser sees this as the Road team’s first major success.
Sharing values and standing up for them together – that’s what matters. On the last weekend in March, we launched an action where great athletes, types and characters came together to show attitude. The idea: We support the Traunstein café Wiggerl17 by delivering snacks and orders by bike on two days, generating donations for the social support programmes of the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation.
