Let's face it, bike racing is a male-dominated, testosterone-soaked sport that caters to those with the biggest ego and the most wins.
And LA Sweat is here to change that. We believe it only takes a few women to influence a peloton, and that cycling is a place for EVERYONE. We’re on a mission to empower other women to cut the crap and be unafraid to just get out there and ride. In a culture of power profiles, recovery tights, and carbon bottle cage bolts, it's nice to be reminded there are still women out there who just wanna go fast and have fun. Because bikes are fun. Riding is fun. Racing is fun. Oh, and winning races every now and then ain't too shabby either.
In 2022 LA Sweat is: Emily Flynn, Ashley Weaver, Dani Morshead, Monica Merced, Kaya Cattouse, Mariana Valadez, Sami Runnels, Tiffany Thomas & Kelli Samuelson
LA SWEAT FACT: While the team began in LA, and the majority of the roster was based, 8 years later, we have expanded to have riders from 5 countries residing around the world. So feel free to pronounce the team name La (lower case A) Sweat if that helps.
LA SWEAT Fact: 60 percent of the team, if given the choice, would be a unicorn. 40% would be a mermaid.
LA Sweat FACT: In 2021 the squad traveled to almost 50% of the states.
LA Sweat FACT: The team means business on and off the bike. The team has over 70,000 personal social media followers. That's a lot of impressions. In six years the team was featured in national magazines and mega-popular blogs including getting the cover of Bicycling magazine.
