Welcome to My Team Name Website!

Our 2025 Team

Natalia Grzegorzewska

Date of Birth: 17.05.2005 Nationality: Poland 🇵🇱 Profession: Student From the forests of Poland to the global MTB stage, this young rider’s journey began with an unforgettable debut at the World Championships in Les Gets — a favorite race that sparked even bigger dreams: standing on the Olympic podium and wearing the rainbow jersey. Already decorated with bronze medals at both the World and European Championships, they’re known for thriving on tough uphills and navigating technical trail sections like a pro. Off the bike, their happy place is spending time with family and friends, and nothing matters more in the team than good communication, mutual understanding, and a positive vibe. They train on forest trails with natural technical features and keep their fridge stocked with kabanosy (Polish cured sausages) — but when it comes to cooking, pierogi are their signature dish. Just don’t ask them to do things last minute — that’s a fast way to push their buttons! If cycling wasn’t their path, they’d be a PE teacher or open a cycling school for kids — because no matter what, their future is all about moving, teaching, and inspiring.

Marta Cano Espinoza

Date of Birth: 19.03.2005 Nationality: Spain 🇪🇸 Profession: Student & Cyclist Hailing from the sun-baked trails of Spain, this young talent has already marked their favorite race memory at the European Championships in Romania — a stepping stone toward their ultimate goal: the Olympic Games. Currently balancing student life with professional cycling, their biggest achievement so far? Earning a place on an international team — a dream come true for many, and just the beginning for this driven athlete. They shine when the climb gets technical and dominate on the descents, especially on dry, stony, and sandy training terrain. Off the bike, they love walking their dogs and spending quality time with family — and in a team environment, what matters most is attention to detail and support. Their fridge is never without butter and jam, and they make a mean pasta carbonara. If they weren’t racing, they’d be running their own nutrition shop and bike repair business — because passion and performance go hand in hand.

Giuliana Salvini-Morgen

Date of Birth: 17.06.2003 Nationality: Brazil 🇧🇷 Profession: Athlete With eyes set on an Olympic medal, this Brazilian rider brings focus and precision to every race. Their favorite course? Nothing beats the thrill and pride of a home race, especially after their standout performance at the World Cup in Mairiporã — a major highlight in their growing career. Known for their sharp technical skills and laser focus, they train on fast, dusty tracks, always pushing the limit. Off the bike, they trade pedals for horsepower — enjoying time on their motorbike, and deeply value clear communication within the team. The essentials? Eggs in the fridge and Brazilian barbecue on the grill. The dealbreaker? Disorganization — it’s just not part of their DNA. If they weren’t competing, they’d be building something of their own as an entrepreneur — a path driven by the same discipline and hunger that fuels their racing.

Ethan Rose

Date of Birth: 14.04.2003 Nationality: New Zealand 🇳🇿 Profession: Cyclist / Accounting Student With a passion for riding and a goal to become World Champion, this Kiwi athlete is already making waves — highlighted by a 6th place finish in the U23 XCO World Championships (2023). For them, nothing tops the adrenaline of the World Champs stage. They thrive on technical downhills and train in the rugged hills back home. Outside of racing, you'll likely find them surfing, soaking in the ocean as a perfect contrast to life on two wheels. Team culture matters: good vibes and strong connections are key. In the kitchen, their fridge is always stocked with Skyr, and their go-to meal? Anything sizzling on the BBQ. Flat tires are their worst enemy, but if life ever took a detour from racing, you'd find them hands-on in another trade — plumbing — or crunching numbers with their accounting background.

Ian Ackert

Date of Birth: 06.03.2005 Nationality: Canada 🇨🇦 Profession: Professional Cyclist Chasing the rainbow jersey and determined to become the best athlete possible, this Canadian rider is already turning heads — with a 3rd place at the Junior World Championships (2023) and 6th at the Cyclocross World Championships (2024). They thrive in the mud and on technical courses, especially those with big climbs. A huge fan of Les Gets World Cup, they bring sharp handling and gritty focus to every race. Off the bike, they unwind with golf, family time, and close friends. Within the team, good communication and chill vibes are non-negotiable. Training grounds? Anywhere steep and technical. Their fridge is never without steak, and their signature meal is a classic: steak and potatoes. The one thing that drives them crazy? A dirty bike — no excuses. If not racing, you’d find them still around bikes — as a top-notch mechanic.

Katrin Embacher

Date of Birth: 25.10.2005 Nationality: Austria 🇦🇹 Profession: Sports Military / High School Graduate Fresh out of high school and now proudly part of the Austrian sports military, this young rider already has a standout achievement: a bronze medal at the Junior European Championships. Their favorite course? The legendary Nové Město, where grit meets history. Built for long climbs and muddy conditions, they train in the stunning Tyrolean Alps — a natural gym that shapes true mountain athletes. Off the trails, they recharge with cross-country skiing, reading, and time with family and friends. Within the team, it’s all about trust and good vibes. The fridge? Always stocked with mozzarella. Their guilty pleasure? Homemade cookies. But don't get stuck walking in front of them — slow walkers are their biggest pet peeve! If they weren't racing, they'd be chasing a different dream — becoming a veterinarian, combining their love for animals with dedication and care.

Raphaël Chazaly

Date of Birth: 05.10.2006 Nationality: France 🇫🇷 Profession: Communication Student Currently studying communication, this rising French talent has already earned the national champion title and claimed victory in the Junior Series. Their favorite battleground? Guéret — a place of personal pride and competitive fire. Their strength? Explosive starts — they’re known for dominating the holeshot and setting the tone early. Training in the rugged terrain of Lozère, they’re on a mission: to win a World Cup, World Championship, or even Olympic gold. Off the bike, they’re all about football — not on the field, but everything around the game. What matters most in the team? A strong team spirit that lifts everyone up. Eggs are a fridge essential, and their signature dish? Chaz — a personal favorite. The one thing that drives them? Becoming the best version of themselves and reaching their goals, no matter what it takes. If racing wasn’t their path… well, that’s still unfolding.
