Interesting. Notice how the UCI is transparent as to where the fees will go. However, it seems that they were prepared to face the penalty, shake up the status quo and draw more attention to the brand. If not ambush marketing, then shock or sensationalist marketing?

I reckon that "oversight" was planned as to draw more attention to the brand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have a designer and/or respective designers along with different sponsors, kit supplier, PR/marketing and the team, no one is going to go in on that as a plan under a deadline.

TNT1 Posted October 15, 2020 Share The UCI fined the team about 400 dolla for the kit although the kit was registered. Vaughters was fuming on Twitter. https://mobile.twitter.com/Vaughters/status/1312498201140760576Armstrong's hatred of the UCI makes more and more sense. When Radioshack changed their kit to all black, also unregistered, each rider was fined 1000 euro, the two directors fined 2000 euro and JB given a two (or was it six) month ban. Why does the UCI apply rules so haphazardly? Like the sprint line deviation thing. Seems like they are run by the same people that run SA's government, just looking to garb money without adding any value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Dale Posted October 29, 2020 Share The EF Pro Cycling squad has taken the unprecedented step to offer one year extensions to all riders who took pay cuts this year and whose contracts were due to expire at the end of 2020, the team confirmed to Cyclingnews on Wednesday. EF were one of several WorldTour teams to ask riders and staff to take wage cuts to keep the team afloat during the coronavirus pandemic, which forced the UCI to stop all road events from mid-March to late July. Team CEO Jonathan Vaughters said that offering contracts to riders who were burdened with the cuts was only fair. Sauce: CyclingNews Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'Dale Posted October 31, 2020 Share I want to continue to do as much as possible. I have plenty of ideas for alternative events. I want to do as much as possible in that department. But I also have a fresh motivation to set some new goals for WorldTour events and really chase those, too.” Lachlan Morton, on renewing with the team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'Dale Posted November 11, 2020 Share Such coolness in vision EF Pro Cycling, Cannondale, and USA Cycling are joining forces to fund and launch collegiate cycling programs at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) and Tribal Colleges and Universities (TCUs).Inspired by the new collegiate team at St. Augustine’s University, the first collegiate program at an HBCU, the initiative will start in 2021 with a three-year commitment to fund two new cycling programs at one HBCU and one TCU.“We believe that cycling is for everyone. Yet, in reality, not everyone feels welcome or has access today,” said Mary Wittenberg, EF Pro Cycling President. ”We want to help increase diversity in our sport, starting with racial diversity in cycling in the USA. Success will require a comprehensive approach across the industry, so we turned to USA Cycling to talk about how we could best target our energies in concert with others looking to help from grade school to masters-age athletes.” Sauce: Cyclingtips Ispeed_V and Danger Dassie 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
