“Today is the start of our journey to elevate Hess Cycling to become the leading professional women’s cycling team in Britain. Over the last 12 months we have worked to build the management team and commercial structures and look forward to supporting the cycling community here in Britain and further afield,” said Rolf Hess.
So far, the team has achieved significant amounts as in its first year it managed to acquire around 750 thousand euros and, according to the founder of Hess Cycling, for the next few years, the objective would be to double the amount, totaling a budget equivalent to 5 million euros .
