Late bid to form men’s British Continental team for 2025 fails

A bid to form a men’s British Continental team for next year has failed due to an inability to attract a title sponsor in a very short time frame.

Harry Tanfield, who led the bid, said that he initially had until 6 December to apply for a Continental team licence after his former team Saint Piran collapsed. The loss of Saint Piran and the road arm of Trinity Racing means the UK is set to have no men’s UCI Continental teams for the first time since 2004 at the start of next season.
