Team BikeExchange have announced the signing of Chelsie Tan Wei Shi for the 2022 season. By making the step up to this level, Tan Wei Shi will become the first Singaporean to race in the Women’s WorldTour peloton, riding for the same team as her compatriot Choon Huat Goh, who became the first Singaporean to race in the men’s WorldTour peloton earlier this season.

“I am really excited and humbled to have this incredible opportunity to be part of Team BikeExchange,” she said. “For me, Team BikeExchange embodies everything that a good team should be - some outstanding individual talents, combined with a focused team and everyone working together to improve.”
