WHAT IS PROJECT PAU?
Project PAU is an initiative dedicated to making cycling accessible for all, providing free support, coaching, and resources for junior riders aged 13 to 18 years old to develop their skills and passion for the sport.
WHAT IS TEAM PAU?
Team PAU selects dedicated members from Project PAU, providing fully-funded spots to young cyclists who demonstrate determination and hard work, ensuring that financial barriers do not prevent them from pursuing their passion for cycling.
BACKED BY BRADLEY WIGGINS
This initiative resonates with Bradley Wiggins because it’s about giving opportunities to kids who might not otherwise have them – whether due to financial barriers, disadvantaged backgrounds, or challenges at home. It’s about leveling the playing field and ensuring everyone has a chance to succeed.
“I wouldn’t underestimate just how powerful an initiative this is for lots of kids. Someone believing in you and giving you the tools and the right coaching and the ability to think for yourself – it makes you realise what else you are capable of in your life.”
– Bradley Wiggins
