We’re are excited to see our breakaway specialist and rouleur, @krauwerda sign with the North American-based UCI team @cyniscacycling. For the last three years, Kaitlyn has been one of our most dependable team players - she is not only athletically gifted and has the skills, but she is into numbers & is a techie, earning her the nickname “Data” on our team. We will definitely be following her as she continues her growth as a professional cyclist. Cynisca: We’re thrilled to announce Kaitlyn Rauwerda as the newest rider to join Cynisca for the 2025 season 🌟 Kaitlyn is a versatile rider known for her opportunistic racing style. She thrives in breakaways where her ability to gauge the perfect moment and capitalize on race dynamics has made her a a breakaway specialist. 💥 After winning a stage at Vuelta Colombia last year and taking the overall victory at Speedweek, Kaitlyn is ready to bring her skills to the next level and race a full season in Europe. 🚴 🌍 Kaitlyn shares: “It’s been great to watch how Cynisca has provided an avenue for North American riders to further develop racing in Europe over the past few years. I couldn’t be more excited to join the squad for 2025, and I’m confident this group will be one to reckon with.” #itsourdna #data #finalseason #cyniscacycling Photos by @lavueltaesasi, @veloimages

Despite getting caught behind crashes, double flatting and all the elements of surprise that gravel racing throws at you - our riders @shaynapowless representing 🇺🇸 & @krauwerda 🇨🇦 absolutely loved racing the UCI Gravel World Championships in Belgium.

Two of our riders will race for the 🌈 at UCI Gravel World Championships in Belgium on October 5th, 2024 - @krauwerda 🇨🇦 & @shaynapowless 🇺🇸! The 134km race will take them from Halle to Leuven, navigating the challenging terrain of the Brabant Forest. Their race through the Belgian National Park will take them on beautiful unpaved gravel roads, monumental trees, and steep climbs along the hollow roads. We are incredibly proud of their hard work and dedication with the team this season & hope Kaitlyn and Shayna enjoy this one last incredible experience on the world’s stage.
