Team Qhubeka is a movement from Africa, aiming to build an inclusive global community; united by the common purpose of changing lives with bicycles. Founded in 2007, Team Qhubeka became the first-ever African cycling team to gain a UCI WorldTour license, in 2016.
They achieved their first major win in 2013 when Gerald Ciolek won Milan-San Remo, one of the five Monuments of cycling. They have competed in seven Tour de France’s and notched up 7 stage wins, with Mark Cavendish wearing the coveted Yellow Jersey at the 2016 Tour de France.
2022 saw them return to UCI Continental status as they took the next step in their journey that will see them rebuild, with the intention to return to highest level and once again represent Africa at the Tour de France.
They are a multicultural, diverse team with bases in South Africa, the Netherlands and Italy. Their focus on developing African cycling has resulted in more than 55 riders from the African continent be given the opportunity to race on the world stage.
