Conor White's team, Muc-Off–SRCT–Storck, has been crowned The British Continental’s Domestic Cycling Team of the Year for 2025. The accolade recognizes an outstanding season of dominance and efficiency, made poignant by the team's impending disbandment due to funding issues.
Muc-Off–SRCT–Storck, which features Bermuda's Conor White, delivered one of the most impressive seasons in recent memory, achieving immense success despite operating on a tiny budget (reported around £8,000) and with a small roster of only seven riders. Their accomplishments were secured through grit, talent development, and a strong team spirit.
The team's dominance saw them secure several key achievements:
They won the National Road Series (both individual and team titles).
They claimed two Premier Calendar wins.
They achieved a notable 1-2 finish at the Reservoir.
Four of their riders finished in the top four of The British Continental's national rankings.
The team's success is bittersweet, as their brilliant 2025 season will be their last. The disbandment is a direct result of funding issues, making their Team of the Year award a tribute to their successful project and a symbol of the fragility of domestic cycling funding.
The team showcased exceptional talent and strategy, proving that success is not solely dictated by budget size.
