UAE-based MyWhoosh, the free online training and racing platform, and the official partner for the UCI Road Cycling World Championships and the UCI E-sports Cycling World Championships, has announced a new partnership with former pro rider Peter Sagan.
Peter Sagan, a three-time road world champion and seven-time Tour de France points classification winner, is a charismatic figure in professional cycling. After retiring from road racing in 2023, Sagan is now returning to his roots in cross-country mountain bike racing, where he first made waves as the junior world champion in 2008.
As he gears up for his return to top-level MTB competition, Sagan will be honing his fitness using MyWhoosh’s library of training plans and workouts. For MyWhoosh users, Sagan’s personally designed workouts will also soon be available to all. This means riders worldwide can train like the former world champion, and even join in planned rideouts with Sagan himself.
Peter Sagan said “I am honoured to become an ambassador for MyWhoosh, the world’s best indoor training and racing platform. Their commitment to advancing technology and supporting the global cycling community aligns perfectly with my passion for the sport.
“I’m excited to provide my own training plans on the platform and even give anyone the opportunity to join me for a ride. I think that together, we can inspire more people to embrace cycling and achieve their fitness goals.”
Sagan’s illustrious career is studded with a number of achievements. He made history by winning the UCI Road World Championships three years in a row (2015-17) and holds a record seven green jerseys from the Tour de France. His victories in the Spring Classics, including Paris-Roubaix, the Tour of Flanders, and Gent-Wevelgem, further cement his status as one of cycling’s greats.
MyWhoosh is a free indoor training and racing platform, and is used by elite teams such as WorldTour UAE Team Emirates, featuring star rider Tadej Pogačar, and Women’s WorldTour team UAE Team ADQ.
Now, with Peter Sagan on board, the platform adds that it is set to offer more opportunities for cyclists of all levels.
Meanwhile, on October 26, 2024, Sagan will also attend the UCI Cycling Esports World Championships in Abu Dhabi alongside Tadej Pogačar.
