The EF Pro Cycling team and Rapha have revealed their annual "switch-out" kit for the Giro d'Italia and the Giro d'Italia Women.

Since 2020, Rapha and EF Pro Cycling have taken on the Italian Grand Tour in alternate kits, swapping out their usual pink to avoid clashing with the race leader’s jersey – the iconic maglia rosa.

As only the race leader is allowed to wear pink, the EF Teams have sported some truly collector-worthy “switch-out’ kits over the years, which are usually loud and/or colourful.

Anne-Marije Rook
North American Editor

Cycling Weekly's North American Editor, Anne-Marije Rook is old school. She holds a degree in journalism and started out as a newspaper reporter — in print! She can even be seen bringing a pen and notepad to the press conference.

Originally from the Netherlands, she grew up a bike commuter and didn't find bike racing until her early twenties when living in Seattle, Washington. Strengthened by the many miles spent darting around Seattle's hilly streets on a steel single speed, Rook's progression in the sport was a quick one. As she competed at the elite level, her journalism career followed, and soon, she became a full-time cycling journalist. She's now been a journalist for two decades, including 12 years in cycling.
