Primal Europe had a fabulous first year in 2011 with over 25 wins, stage race wins, high ranking of 13th in the U.K. and a Masters Champion. This year they have continued to improve and raise their standards. Having recently returned from the Ras Mumhan in Ireland, where Primal Europe held Under 23 jersey and finished 3rd and 4th overall. Primal Europe also have a development club called RuTrainingToday CC, where promising youngsters can cut their teeth in the racing scene, whilst those who just want to ride their bikes can do so.
The team names are yet to be released, but they will of course be easily recognisable with their trade mark ‘Go Faster’ stripes! The Tour Series is a great opportunity for the whole team to compete at the next level, but also provides a platform to show themselves off to their sponsors.
