What does “free” mean?

Here is the fine print.

Registration and event entries

We’ll send you a discount code so that you don’t have to pay a cent.

Loaner bike

You won’t have to pay to hire the bike, but it will attract a fully refundable $300 deposit, to ensure the bike is returned in good working order.

Bike hire is normally $150 + $300 deposit for the season. This offer only requires the deposit.

Club kit

You will receive your kit after attending six event rounds or six weeks of training. Until then, you can wear whatever kit you have, or you can buy it up front and we’ll refund it after your sixth round/week. –Kit is subject to availability. If we don’t have any in stock, we’ll add your free kit to our next order.

Coaching and Training

You’ll pay for training, but we’ll refund it in the form of a voucher after each quarter. There are two quarters to a season. -If cashflow is a problem, please contact Stelio Pappas for a private conversation. We’ll make it work for you.

Can I help close the gender gap?

If you have a business, Neo wants to partner with you to help reduce the hurdles for female riders getting into cycling.

If your business is cycling related, we would love for you to help us with loan bikes, jerseys, knicks, shoes, gloves, socks etc that can be used to encourage riders into the sport.

If your business is not cycling related, cold hard cash helps too. -We’d love for you to cover the other 50% of the bike rental and/or a uniform, registration costs etc.

Tell our Gender Equality Manager your idea or contact her for more information.
