Laval, Quebec -- MAPEI Inc. is proud to announce it is now an official partner of Cycling Canada, a not-for-profit organization whose mission is to promote cycling across Canada. Cycling Canada also manages the Canadian National Cycling Team, comprised of athletes from all disciplines that represent Canada at international competitions, World Championships and Major Games.
"Together with MAPEI’s global sponsorship of the International Cycling Union (UCI), we are excited for this opportunity to showcase cycling here at home," MAPEI Canada General Manager Marco Roma said.
The motto “Never stop pedaling” coined by the late Giorgio Squinzi, MAPEI’s former CEO, sums up one of the main attributes MAPEI shares with cycling: constantly pushing yourself to your limits to achieve increasingly rewarding goals.
"As we say at MAPEI, cycling is in our DNA. And with Montreal set to host the upcoming 2026 UCI Road World Championships, hopefully our partnership today can help spur success for our national team when they compete at home and on the world stage," Roma added.
Josh Peacock, Cycling Canada Director of Marketing and Events, added, “We are thrilled to add MAPEI Canada to a growing network of Official Partners that provides a strong foundation for us to build the cycling community in Canada. MAPEI aligns with Cycling Canada in several of its core principles, including the development of local communities and innovation, and we feel that this will contribute to a meaningful partnership for many years to come.”
2023 marks the 45th anniversary of MAPEI in Canada, and for much of that time, MAPEI has been privileged to be able to support various amateur sports and cultural events across Canada, from ice hockey to cycling and beyond.
