www.agiskoviner.com are a new Southern based cycling club. The club was born out of Prestige VC.com (PVC) after a number of rider's split away to form a separate racing team. The new club retains links to PVC via Peter Cole, the club President and the sponsors he brings to each set up supported under the PVC "umbrella". Here's how the overall set up looks, with our set-up highlighted:

Now, where and how do we fit into all of this? We share the sponsorship benefits of Agisko and Viner with all of the other set-ups. We are totally unconnected to any of the other set ups, apart from being under the umbrella of PVC and being able to contribute to the PVC Italian Team. This team will be assembled from all of the other PVC sub set-ups in order to ride Elite UCI races and Prestige Grand Fondo events in Italy.

The main aims of our club are as follows:

1. To support a number of racing teams from youths through to senior levels.

2. To foster a development programme from youths to senior levels.

3. Provide a club and team spirit/ethos for ALL concerned at WHATEVER level.

4. Provide a service via the main sponsors and through the support of local bike shops, suppliers & importers to the team and club members that they might not get at other set ups.

5. Carry out the function of a traditional club by having activities such as: club runs, social gatherings, trips abroad, training camps/holidays, organising events, organising races, providing a coaching service, contributing to Regional or Divisional activities, encouraging new riders, bringing novices into the sport and everything and anything else you can think of that a good traditional club has ever done. We aim to do this with a forward looking, positive and progressive outlook, not to be a bunch of miserable old whingers!
