What is fondo.team?
The team started from a simple desire: To race and adventure on the bike with like-minded people.
The team is based in The Netherlands and focusses on Gran Fondo racing. We provide you with an amazing kit and accomodation during Gran Fondo's with our partners.
How to qualify?
We have set-up 10 segments all over the Netherlands and Belgium for you to qualify on. The person that is the fastest in each separate segment is qualified to be a part of the team.
Next to that, you have to send a video of yourself introducing you and your goals for next year. This makes it easy for us to get to know you and see if you are a fit for the team.
The rules
To make it fair and manageable for us, there are some rules. They are focussed on the goals of the team and making the qualification fair for everyone.
You have to provide proof of doing the segment on Strava by sending a screenshot of your time with power data.
You have to do the segment between the 25th of December 2024 and the 17th of January 2025
You must turn 19 in 2025 to be a part of the team. This is the limit to participate in the UCI Gran Fondo World Series.
If we suspect you have been cheating you are directly banned from entering the team.
You have to be committed to race at least 3 Gran Fondo or other races in next year.
You have no problem with being on video, and also like to create social content yourself.
