EVENT DESCRIPTION
Run by former and current pros, The Cyclists’ Alliance is a foundation, funded purely by donations and subscriptions, that provides holistic support to professional female cyclists during and after their careers. The Cyclists’ Alliance works hard to secure fairer pay for female athletes, resolve disputes with teams, provide emotional and economic support, and elevate the appeal of women’s cycling.https://cyclistsalliance.orgOpens a new window
This Zwift social ride is for anyone who wants to join The Cyclists’ Alliance movement for change and chat directly with the women from the professional peloton!
This week’s guest is Audrey Cordon-Ragot
She first turned pro in 2008 and has been a vital support for her teams as a super-domestique, but has also netted a few of her own respectable results, including the overall in the Tour de Bretagne Féminin (2013), a stage in La Route de France (2014), and third in the Madrid Challenge by La Vuelta (2018). She is a dominant rider who excels in the time-trial and has won the French National title for four consecutive years and claimed the prestigious Chrono des Nations time trial. In 2019, Audrey won the Tour de Bretagne Féminin for a second time and soloed to an impressive win in Drentse Acht van Westerveld. Unfortunately, her National TT streak came to a frustrating end: she finished in second place due to a mechanical.
Your Ride Leader
Roos Hoogeboom currently rides for Biehler Krush Pro Cycling and prior to this she rode for Bizkaia-Durango. Roos has raced the infamous Giro Rosa, Flèche Wallonne and Liege-Bastogne-Liege to name a few and regularly joins the local Kermesses in Belgium and The Netherlands.
Roos is also responsible for the finances of The Cyclists’ Alliance to ensure we can provide the fundamental services to our riders.
