From Pori Noormarkku, Finland, Mona Kangasniemi is everything SISU Racing stands for: quiet determination, consistency over time, and a deep love for the process. A two-time SISU Racing Women’s Club Champion, Mona’s journey into cycling didn’t start with elite sport or a lifelong athletic background - it started with curiosity, perseverance, and a decision to keep showing up.

When people talk about SISU Racing, they often talk about growth, depth, and culture. To understand why SISU feels the way it does, you don’t need to look far - just look back to the beginning, and to one of its four founding members: Miguel Méndez.

Originally from Spain and now based in the Midlands of Ireland, Miguel has been part of SISU from the very first pedal strokes. Not just as a rider, but as a builder of culture, of connection, and of the idea that cycling is better when it’s shared.

From northern Virginia, USA, Jeremiah B doesn’t just ride with SISU Racing - he lives the mindset behind it. His story isn’t a straight line to performance. It’s a rebuild. A health wake-up call. A decision to stack the deck in his favour. And then, day after day, the steady work that turned “I hope I can” into “I belong here.”

Repping SISU Racing from Mechelen — a historic city perfectly wedged between Brussels and Antwerp — Niels Willems proudly calls Belgium the cornerstone of cycling. And like the country itself, his riding is built on grit, versatility, and a deep respect for shared suffering.

Repping SISU Racing from Switzerland, Sabina trains where mountains are not just a metaphor but a way of life. A diesel climber at heart, she thrives on long ascents, early mornings, and the quiet confidence that comes from knowing she can go further than she once believed.

SISU Racing has today formally launched its Public Commitment Statement to advance women in cycling esports, alongside the formation of the inaugural SISU Racing Women’s Leadership Team - a clear signal of long-term intent, not a symbolic gesture.

For Paweł Klamecki from Wrocław, Poland, cycling isn’t a hobby, a phase, or something that needs explaining. It’s simply part of life. Something you do. Something you commit to. Something you build - slowly, honestly, and without shortcuts.

From Israel, Yakov Dadush lives a rhythm that many talk about but few truly commit to. He’s a father of seven, a competitive SISU Racing rider, and a reminder that high-level performance isn’t forged in highlight moments—it’s built quietly, day by day, through consistency, planning, and community.

The Road Race Championship is where SISU Racing’s Club Championships truly come alive. It’s the discipline that blends everything - fitness, patience, and race IQ into one long, unforgiving test. Introduced for the first time in 2024/25, the longer road race immediately proved why it belongs at the heart of the championships.

From Glasgow to Makuri, and now to the electric streets of New York, the Criterium Championship has never been about comfort. It’s about nerve, awareness, and timing. Blink and it’s over.

If the Individual Time Trial exposes pacing, the Climb Championship exposes character. Across the first two editions of the SISU Racing Club Championships, the climbing stage has been the moment where contenders either cemented their campaign or watched it unravel.

Necati “Brofessor” doesn’t shout about watts, plans, or podiums. He doesn’t obsess over perfect intervals or colour-coded calendars. And yet, quietly, deliberately, he’s become one of the most important threads in the fabric of SISU Racing.
