The newly founded T-Mobile women's team is currently at its first ever training camp on Mallorca, and according to sporting director Andrzej Bek, "The riders are all committed, and, if at all, have to be held back in their enthusiasm." Bek noted that the riders first met at a team-building session in the off-season. "I could tell then and there that the chemistry within the team was right," he added.
Bek also found out that directing a women's team is not more difficult than directing a men's team, only different. "Women are very sensitive, emotional and need to be addressed more sensitively. You have to treat each rider individually and look for the right way to put your ideas across," he said.
