UCI Women's Teams

The UCI Women's Teams are women's road bicycle teams sanctioned by the International Cycling Union (UCI). These teams compete in the major women's bicycle races including the UCI Women's Road World Cup and the team time trial for trade teams at the UCI Road World Championships.

The country designation of each team is determined by the country of registration of the largest number of its riders, and is not necessarily the country where the team is registered or based.[1]
