The Schwingshandl Cycle Race is the result of the committed work of the Schwingshandl Cycling Team, which was founded in 2023. The idea for the foundation of their own bike team came up in the summer of 2022, and the association was officially registered in the autumn of the same year. Since then, the team has developed into one of the largest amateur teams in Austria, with plans to found both an elite lady and an elite men's team and take part in international races, as can be read on the official website of the team. Particularly noteworthy is the focus on clean sport and the zero tolerance policy towards doping that accompany the team's values, such as Schwingshandl-cycling.com.
