Both riders have been integral to the team’s success across road and gravel racing, and they expressed their enthusiasm for continuing their journeys with the team.
Bradbury’s rise with Canyon SRAM
Neve Bradbury, who first made her mark by winning the Zwift Academy in 2020, has enjoyed a standout 2024 season. Her achievements include general classification podiums at the Tour Down Under, UAE Tour, Tour de Suisse, and Giro d’Italia. With stage wins secured at the Tour de Suisse and Giro d’Italia Women along the way too.
Bradbury, reflecting on her decision to stay with Canyon SRAM, said, “The decision to stay with Canyon SRAM Racing was easy. I knew I didn’t want to leave, so I didn’t think twice when offered the contract extension.”Bradbury credited the team for their unwavering support, which she believes has significantly boosted her performance. “We have a nice group here that feels like a family. The team backs me 100%, which gives me the confidence to believe in myself,” she added. Looking forward, Bradbury is eager to reach the top step of the general classification and to focus more on the classics, aiming to secure additional victories for the team.
Cromwell’s role as road captain
Tiffany Cromwell, who has been with Canyon SRAM since its formation in 2016, continues to play a pivotal role in guiding the team, particularly through her responsibilities as road captain. Cromwell has transitioned into this role following the departure of Trixi Worrack at the end of 2018, focusing on developing younger riders and sharing her wealth of experience. Commenting on her contract extension, Cromwell shared, “It was a relatively easy decision to extend my contract with Canyon SRAM Racing. I had considered continuing in the sport or stopping at the end of this year. In the end, we decided to go for one more year.”
Cromwell has also been a prominent figure in gravel racing, where she has enjoyed success while balancing her commitments on the road. She acknowledged the challenges of managing both disciplines but highlighted the team’s support in aligning her calendar. “It’s a balancing act managing my gravel and road programmes, but we’re getting the two programmes aligned better with every season,” she explained. Looking ahead to 2025, Cromwell aims to secure more gravel victories while continuing to support her teammates on the road, ensuring that she finishes her career with no regrets.
