About Klubi Cycling Tartu
Klubi Cycling Tartu was founded 2017 by former pro riders Rene Mandri, Jaan Kirsipuu and local entrepreneur Hannes Kirs as an amateur team to give the U23 level riders (19-22 y.o.) an opportunity to continue to prove themselves as there were no pro teams and opportunities in our region.
During the 5 years of history (former Cycling Tartu, BalticChainCycling.com, Ampler Development Team, Team Ampler-Tartu2024 and now Tartu 2024 Cycling Team ) we have had over 120 victories, we have produced 8 riders who have made a step to a higher level team and race as professional cyclists.
We see this as a great result of team's determined work.
Our goal is to develope Estonian, Latvian, Lithuanian and Finnish U23 riders and win international races.
Today the team is run by Jaan Kirsipuu helped by the Latvian coach Toms Flaksis and Lithuanian Sports Director Gediminas Bogdanas.
