  • The new group to be launched today. Good luck

The Israeli bicycle industry will record one of the biggest highlights in its history this morning, when it is officially announced the establishment of a new team built on Israeli academic cycling and will compete in the upcoming World Tour - the world's best league - and its teams regularly compete in the three Grand Tour races and lead the Tour de France .

After already replacing the bicycle skeleton company that will use it this season and announcing a particularly impressive series of world-class riders, Israel Cycling Academy is expected to present its full rider roster at the Tel Aviv event this morning and then open in the south of the country in a rare and professional training camp where, as noted, All riders.

Academies remained in suspense until yesterday afternoon, when they received official approval from the World Bicycle Association regarding the transfer of participation rights in World Tour from the Katusha Alpesin group to the Israeli group. The meaning not only ends with the cherry waiting at the Paris Victory Gate, but also participation in amazing classics such as the Paris Race - Rifle and Milan - San Remo where Academic previously participated.

As first published in Israel Today, three months ago, the completion of the World Tour rankings process will reveal the official and new name of the team today.

After completing the Giro D'Italia, the pair of Israeli riders Guy Sagiv and Guy Niv are expected to be at the forefront of the team this season as well. The two have a secure academic roster. Niv, who had a fantastic season and finished the gyro last year, and who responded, two years ago, showed some potential, but this season has had a difficult opening and dealt with injuries.

The one who was supposed to be the third Israeli on the academy's guaranteed list is Roy Goldstein (26), one of the first to join the academy in his first incompetent incarnation (relatively). After the season ended, Goldstein, the eldest of a family of three riders (Omar and Ido), decided to retire, saying: "I decided to say goodbye to what my life was for about ten years. During that time I touched a dream, but I also came to a self-realization that I had exhausted myself in the field and had no new bullet cartridge. I decided to cut rather than die in a frustrating parting tunnel and leave on my own terms and with my decision. "

After the responder and Niv are guaranteed and Goldstein empties the cartridge, the academy will probably not be satisfied with just two local representatives, and the senior roster is expected to join two other Israelis - Omar Goldstein, who proved offensive and survival capabilities last season, and sprinter Itamar Einhorn. This quartet is expected to have a season that, even in the craziest dreams, they failed to make in advance.

One of them, for sure, will become the first Israeli to ride the Tour de France on June 27, 2020. The starting point for the first section of the Tour de France will be in Nice, French Riviera, but this morning, as mentioned above, all academic members of 80 riders, its managers, crew members and last but not least the office staff will concentrate near another spot in the Mediterranean and hear how a two-person dream, Silvan Adams and Ronnie Brown, Put Israel on the global bike map.
