VismaâÂÂLease a Bike is a women's professional road bicycle racing team based in the Netherlands. The team is sponsored by Norwegian software and IT company Visma and German company Lease a Bike, which also sponsor a men's team.
History
In October 2020, announced the launch of a women's team, which officials said would "complete" an organization that already had a men's team. They said they aimed to develop women's cycling within and outside the Netherlands using the team's experience and facilities, and ultimately to build the best women's team in the world.
Superstar Marianne Vos joined the team and raced in its inaugural season in 2021; she extended her participation through the end of 2025. In 2024, French mountain bike world champion Pauline Ferrand-Prévot announced that she would return to road cycling, signing a three-year deal with the team.
Major victories for the team have included Vos' in the Amstel Gold Race in 2021 and 2024, and Ferrand-Prévot's in the 2025 ParisâÂÂRoubaix Femmes and the 2025 Tour de France Femmes. The team has stage wins in the three major stage races: La Vuelta Femenina, Giro d'Italia Women and Tour de France Femmes.
