EF Education First reveal 2020 kit

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:EF Education First have revealed their 2020 kit, with Tejay van Garderen, US champion 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Alex Howes and Logan Owen modeling the bri꧂ght pink and blue kit from a gr🅺avel camp in Bentonville, Arkansas.
The trio converged on the Oz Trails network, a web of almost 1,000 miles of paved, gravel and single track trails in Northwest Ark💝ansas. The region is best known as Walmart's headquarters, but the cycling-enthusiast Walton heirs and the Walton Family Foundation have helped tur𝔍n the area into one of the hottest off-road scenes in the USA. Fayetteville will host the UCI Cyclo-cross World Championships in 2022.
With its partnership with Rapha this season, EF Education First have embraced an 'alternative racing' calendar, with Lach🍒lan Morton and Howes competing in the Dirty Kanza anꦬd Leadville 100, and Morton racing across Great Britain in the GBDuro. This week's camp saw EF riders take in road, mountain, and gravel rides.
The team's equipment partner Cannondale brought in some of their sponsored freeride and end🐈uro riders to act as tour guides, with Ella Conolly, Josh Bryceland and Max Nerukar joining the roadies for the three-day camp.
"Mountain bikes, bonfires, new trails, and learning a few tricks from pro mountain bikers? That's my kiꦜnd of team camp," Howes said in the press release. "I packed for this thing like I was packing for a𓃲 camp vacation. Hatchet? Check. Mountain bike? Check. Binoculars? Check. Sense of humor? Check."
Owen, a multi-time cyclo-cross national champion, is familiar with the area and said "It's cool to come back with my teammates and enjoy what the area has to offer and come toge👍ther with so many different riders and a truly amazing cycli𝓡ng community. It's a cool thing to be a part of, for sure."
Tejay van Garderen enjoyed the departure from the usual team camp script. "I've been going to team camps for like 10 years. It's usually the same thing — training ride, photoshoot, road bike, repeat. This is a new vibe for a rider like me, who's usually training for gr🌳and tours. I'm loving it — the trails and the feeling of riding a mountain bike, chasing around… it's a blast."
