According to WAM, the UAE’s first professional women’s cycling team – UAE Team ADQ – has completed its training camp in Italy ahead of the 2023 season.
The training camp was held in Tuscany from December 9th to 15th and included technical preparations, basic evaluations for runners, physiological and metabolic tests, nutritional and medical examinations.
A total of 16 drivers from nine different nationalities will represent the team in the new season.
In addition to rigorous training sessions that included daily mountain biking, physical training and equipment testing and tuning, the pre-season training camp also brought together other members of the UAE ADQ team, including coaches, mechanics, medical team and support staff.
Melissa Moncada, Head of UAE Team ADQ, said: “During the 2023 season, UAE Team ADQ riders will compete in the Grand Tours, namely Tour de France Women, Giro d’Italia and Ceratizit Challenge by La Vuelta, as as well as the most important classic races such as Paris-Roubaix, the Tour of Flanders and the Flèche Wallonne.
“We are also excited to unveil our new cycling gear as well as the new Colnago 2023 bike. Our training venue reflects the terrain our riders will be racing on, so we’re excited they can benefit from this rigorous program in light of the upcoming World Tour events. »
The UAE Team ADQ riders for the new 2023 season are Safiya Alsayegh (UAE), Alena Amialiusik (Belarus), Olivia Baril (Canada), Marta Bastianelli (Italy), Sofia Bertizzolo (Italy), Eugenia Bujak (Slovakia), Chiara Consonni (Italy), Eleonora Gasparrini (Italy), Mikayla Harvey (New Zealand), Elizabeth Holden (UK), Alena Ivanchenko (Russia), Karolina Kumiega (Poland), Erica Magnaldi (Italy), Silvia Persico (Italy), Laura Tomasi (Italy) and Anna Trevisi (Italy).
In early October, the team took part in a 10-day trip to Abu Dhabi that included their first training camp in the UAE, cultural activities and sponsorship events.
