• Use the team website and team mobile app to stay updated and connected with other team members. Members should create a profile, keep your race schedule current, log race results, write race recaps, etc. The more our athletes share and engage with each other, the better we can promote everyone and brag when they do well.
• Refrain from publicly promoting any products from conflicting cycling companies. This is an exclusive partnership with FLO Cycling.
• Be respectful and responsible. Athletes chosen for FLO Factory Team are brand ambassadors and must behave accordingly. Any action that may negatively affect the integrity of the FLO Cycling brand (i.e. doping) is cause for immediate and permanent termination of membership.
