As I've said many times, Nino has never received the plaudits and praise from the general cycling media...... only the MTB media.

Good for them to get an outside sponsor. Reading the blurb its obviously an amazing product, looking forward to Evie lapping the field.

Last season they were Trek Factory Racing-Pirelli XC. Whilst it's good they've now got a proper title sponsor, I still think it's a shame the Lidl sponsorship didn't cover the whole of Trek racing - and not just the road teams.

To be honest was easy to not notice; they didn't do a very good job of promoting the 'Pirelli' part of the team name, when they were already a sponsor on the jerseys.

I did wonder whether Sammie would attract any interest from WWT road teams....but it appears not (or if they did, she isn't interested).
