We’ve got a packed racing schedule this year! Here’s what’s in store for March:

On Sunday 1st March we kick off our 2026 road racing campaign at the Omloop van het Hageland in Belgium 🇧🇪 📺 Tune into TNT Sports/Discovery from 12pm (GMT) to catch the action live!

That's the first team camp of the season completed, one of the few times in a season we get everyone together in the same place. The on bike work is critically important, but so is having everyone together to get to know each other, work on building a strong team ethos and having some fun.

@Elisalongob is spot on here, financial pressures make things very precarious at Continental level. It is getting more and more difficult to realise ever increasing budget requirements. Everything is very precarious with a very unstable foundation, the whole house of cards may come tumbling down.

A big thanks to everyone who came to our 2026 Team Launch last night at John Clark Skoda. We were delighted to show off our new kit for this season and take part in a team Q&A hosted by Mark Beaumont. Special thanks to John Clark Motor Group for hosting the evening. 📸: Murdo Macgillivray

As we move into the 2026 season, team colours were resplendent over Scotland last night. It's going to be a great season, team launch this week followed by the first team camp of the season. #northernlights #auroraborealis

We’re happy to be riding with Shimano for 2026. The Ultegra R8170 Di2 groupset gives our riders the confidence to race hard and focus on the road ahead.

We’re proud to continue with Parcours as wheel sponsor and Vittoria as tyre sponsor for 2026. The Strade all-rounder aero wheelset paired with Vittoria Corsa Pro tyres delivers speed, control, and confidence. Built on the shared innovation of the #ThinkWider project. Engineered to win.

We’re pleased to confirm OTE will continue as our official nutrition sponsor, alongside performance fuelling platform Hexis Live. From training through to race day, our riders are fuelled with precision using trusted on-bike nutrition and data-led insights to perform when it matters most.

We’re delighted to continue our partnership with Handsling Bikes as the team’s bike sponsor for 2026. The stunning A1R0evo has already proven itself at the highest level, delivering wins and strong results across top-tier UCI races.

We’re excited to start the year of with the launch of our 2026 jersey design! Big thanks to Impsport Apparel for making it happen!

As 2025 wraps up, the team would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New year! 🎄✨ To our sponsors, fans and supporters - we’d like to say a massive thank you to everyone who helped the team this year, your commitment is very much valued. On to 2026 for another year of racing!

"Road racing in the UK — it’s withering on the vine a bit" A standout season for Handsling-Alba — built on a development-first ethos — yet Bob Lyons warns that without urgent reform, British racing will struggle to keep the talent it produces. thebritishcontinental.co.uk/2025/11/17/b...

After UCI wins, a national title and a WorldTour graduation, @albaroadteam.bsky.social adds six new riders to form its strongest line-up yet. Read the full story - with exclusive insight from team manager Bob Lyons. thebritishcontinental.co.uk/2025/10/27/h...

World Champions! 🌈 🥇 Maddie Leech and her teammate Katie Archibald stormed to victory last night in the Madison at the @uci_cycling track world championships! Massive well done to both in. hectic race, especially to Maddie for winning her first ever rainbow jersey! 📸 @swpix_cycling

That’s a wrap on our team announcements for 2026! We’re proud to confirm an exciting mix of experience and fresh talent as we look ahead to another big year for Alba. See you all on the road next year! 💙 📸: Andy Smith & Murdo MacGillivray

End of Season 2025! That’s a wrap on the racing for 2025 and what a season it has been. The team continue to build on earlier foundations and its development ethos, which continues to provide the platform for both individual and team progression.

The team are delighted to announce that Lauren Dickson has signed a two year contract with the Women’s World Tour team @fdj_suez ! Read more below:

It has been a very busy week - straight back from La Perigord in France on Sunday, to the penultimate round of the National Circuit Series in Colne last night. A tough week with injuries and illness compounding the challenging travel schedule, but the team have ridden extremely well.

So, yet again Hess cycling team withdraw at short notice from a race, citing funding difficulties. This is totally unacceptable to riders/staff and race organisers, but above all it is unacceptable and damaging to teams like us, who are denied invitations to key races by their behaviour.

Stunning day in Belgium, GP Beveren tomorrow.

July has begun and so has Crit season! Another packed month of racing around the UK and Europe, including 5 rounds of the National Circuit series - where Kate will get to wear her new championship stripes! First stop is Otley town centre tomorrow evening!

Fresh stripes for Kate! @kate_richardson__ took the win in Aberystwyth this evening - earning her the title of National Champion! The damp course made for tricky racing conditions but Kate put the power down all the way to the line. What a ride and what a result. 🏆 📸 @andy.smith_photo

Day 1 at National Champs is a wrap! An all round successful day on the TT bikes, with Maddie taking 3rd in the U23, and top 10 results for Mari, Kate and Lauren too! Results: Maddie - 🥉(u23) Mari - 8th (u23) Lauren - 7th (Elite) Kate - 8th (Elite) Arianne - 13th (Elite) 📸 @swpix.bsky.social

It’s great to have the Tour of the Reservoir back on the calendar. Another great team effort, perhaps not the result on paper we would have liked, but could not of asked for anything more from anyone. On to Wales now for the British Championships this week.

We're back racing this weekend at the Tour of the Reservoir! A 133km course will see the riders take on some punchy climbs around the Derwent Reservoir, County Durham. Sunday will also be the 4th race in the National Women's Series, where valuable points will be on the table.

We were rolling strong at the Tour of Britain last week with the Strade wheelset from Parcours and Vittoria Corsa Pro tyres - speed, grip, and style dialled in.

Following a crash in stage 2 of the Tour of Norway, and major surgery on her hand and wrist, Amelia has now been discharged from hospital in Stavanger. Recover fast Amelia, we are with you every step of the way, and are sure you will be back even stronger. 💙💙💙🦄

What a week, that was at the Tour of Britain Women. Incredible to race in front of huge crowds, particularly on home roads in Scotland. Thank you @tourofbritain for a superb week, looking forward to 2026. Get well soon Kate and Maddie. 📸 @swpix_cycling 📸 @bob.macgregor.31 📸 Billy Knox Photography

Lauren has a very exciting future ahead of her.

Stage 2 Tour of Britain - a big one for the team! Day 2 brought more highs and lows today, a break of three right at the start of the race saw Maddie get a gap of over 3 minutes on the peloton for over half the race.

Stage 1 of the Tour of Britain was a challenging one today, strong winds and strong riders made for attritional racing conditions. The team rode well though, with Lauren making it into the break, before puncturing with 3km to go. We go again on stage 2 tomorrow!

Team Announcement Due to unfortunate circumstances, we've made a late change to our rider lineup for the Tour of Britain. Amelia and Neah will no longer be racing, and instead Amy and Arianne will take their place.

What a weekend in Norway! 🇳🇴

It has been an incredible few months for the team and in particular Lauren, but this weekends performance at the Tour of Norway was exceptional. In a world class field, Lauren showed what she is capable of, taking a stunning 2nd place in stage 1, 8th in stage 2 and 3rd on GC.

Lauren Dickson 🇬🇧 came onto my radar in 2024 when I was commentating on the Lancaster GP where she came 2nd. She has grown so much as a rider and is looking like she'll be a major talent. Top teams will be after her signature. Well done on another superbly developed rider, @albaroadteam.bsky.social

A huge race for Lauren today as she takes 🥈on stage 1 of the Tour of Norway! A big day for the team. Watch stage 2 tomorrow on Discovery / TNT

The Tour of Britain is almost upon us - let's do this! Check out our roster for the biggest race on our calendar ⬇️

June is shaping up to be another busy month of racing! 🚴‍♀️ ☀️ Kicking it off is the Tour of Norway, then we're back home for the Tour of Britain, a short break and we're on the road to Flanders again, then back to Northumberland for...

We're back racing this weekend over at the Tour of Norway! A two day stage race that will take us round some beautiful Norwegian landscapes while also putting the riders to the test in this UCI 2.1 race.

It’s less than 2 weeks until The Tour Of Britain ! With stages in Scotland for the first time in the women’s tour - we can’t wait to show the World Tour teams our home roads! Who’s coming to watch?

The results keep coming! 👑 After a flying TTT, a 2nd on stage 3 and a very rainy week - Kate comes home with the yellow jersey from the @tourdefeminin ! A result of great performances from the whole team: Kate, Lauren, Amelia, Arianne, Mari & Beth. Thanks for having us Czechia! 🇨🇿

Kate Richardson wins the Tour De Feminin overall🥇 What a race!

It’s 2nd for Kate in Stage 3, and also taking Yellow into tomorrow’s final stage!

It was a very tough stage yesterday, but a solid day for the team. Kate and Lauren up to 10th and 11th on GC at 45 seconds back. Lauren 4th in polka dot. It’s all to play for! 📺 Watch stage 3 here: www.youtube.com/live/zNyh1nn...

It was a solid start today, with a very well ridden Team Time Trial in tricky wet conditions. The team rode conservatively due to the difficult conditions. 7th place in GC at +43s, means we are well placed for tomorrow's road race in the Lusatian Mountains.

Tomorrow we kick off racing at the Tour de Feminin in the Czech Republic with a Team Time Trial. The TTT is a short 12.6km course outside the town of Krásná Lípa, with some punchy climbs and steep descents, stage 1 will be key to deciding GC standings for the following days.
