Stefanie Van Amerongen will continue to have a role supporting the team in the wider women’s group and on the road as an ambassador and rider.
Team director Brad Hall said the women’s racing in WA had come a long way in recent years and the strength of the team reflected the determination of the cycling community to make women’s cycling a priority.
“The team has massive goals for 2016 including domestic and international racing campaigns”, he said.
“Providing equality of opportunity and access to resources has always been our intention in the formation of our women’s program in Perth three years ago.
“Because of the foundational support and vision of key community and corporate sponsors we have been able to achieve some parity as we enter 2016.
“This group works hard, competes with clarity and determination and team work will deliver results”, said Mr Hall.
