Blanka Kata Vas and Anna Shackley extends contract with Team SD Worx for two more seasons

Team SD Worx has extended the contract with Blanka Kata Vas and Anna Shackley. Both riders will be a part of the team until 2024.

Vas chose to extend with the team for its home-like atmosphere and comfort. "I didn't have to think long when I was able to extend my contract," explained Vas. Aside from comfort, the team also provides her with the opportunity to grow big as a rider in various disciplines. "Within the team, I can continue to do the combination of road, cyclocross and mountain bike. Thus, next year I will ride a little more mountain bike races with a view to qualifying for the Olympics in Paris in 2024.”

She continues, "This season, I rode a pretty full road program for the first time. I learned a huge amount. I haven't yet figured out where my biggest opportunities on the road actually lie. Although I do have a preference for the one-day races."

Anna Shackley is an upcoming rider with great potential. Having joined the team last year, she has made a significant contribution and continued to impress with her performance. "I made nice progress in 2022. In the hill classics and in the heavier round work, I come into my own best. Certainly, my results in the fall were good. That gives a lot of motivation going into the winter towards the upcoming season. I am enjoying myself at Team SD Worx. I am developing well here. There is also a good team atmosphere between the riders and the staff. I feel at home here," concluded Shackley.
