A cycling team is a group of cyclists who compete together in road bicycle racing, track cycling, mountain biking, or other forms of cycling. These teams are often sponsored by commercial enterprises, and they compete in various cycling competitions around the world.

Structure and Roles[edit | edit source]

Cycling teams are typically composed of several key roles:

Team Leader: The primary rider who is the focus of the team's efforts. The team leader is often the strongest rider and the one most likely to win races.
Domestiques: Riders who support the team leader by setting the pace, providing drafting, and fetching supplies.
Sprinters: Riders who specialize in high-speed finishes.
Climbers: Riders who excel in mountainous terrain.
Time Trialists: Riders who specialize in individual time trials and team time trials.

Cycling teams employ various strategies to achieve success in races. These strategies include:

Drafting: Riding closely behind another rider to reduce wind resistance.
Breakaways: Attempting to escape from the main group to gain a time advantage.
Lead-Out Trains: Organizing a line of riders to set up a sprinter for a final burst of speed.

Cycling teams are often sponsored by companies that provide financial support in exchange for advertising. These sponsors' names are prominently displayed on the team's cycling jerseys and equipment. Major sponsors can include bicycle manufacturers, automotive companies, and financial institutions.
