“The idea of a Pump for Peace racing team has been there for a while, but we didn't actually plan on making it happen already for 2022. When Ariane found out that Faranak was struggling to register for the World Cups, she called me just two weeks before Christmas, while I was laying asphalt on a pumptrack at the Syrian border in Turkey. Why don’t we register a UCI team to get Faranak to the World Cups?” - Claudio Caluori
