class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\">Girmay, who did not win a race in 2025, will lead the new squad, which currently has 28 riders, joining George Bennett, Alexey Lutsenko, and Stephen Williams. The Tour de France green-jersey winner said it was the only team that he felt could help him win a race in 2026.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Introducing our 2026 jersey, inspired by NSN\u2019s home city of Barcelona. Its design blends geometry, colour blocks, and patterns reminiscent of contemporary BCN,&#8221; the team stated in a post to social media in December.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is a city that never stands still, where tradition meets modernity, movement becomes identity, and where people dare to dream big. The design also features hints of the Rwanda Imigongo art form as a nod to the team\u2019s ongoing Racing for Change project.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"newsletter-form__strapline\">The latest race content, interviews, features, reviews and expert buying guides, direct to your inbox!<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Introducing the first photos of our 2026 signings in our stunning new kit \ud83e\udd29(1) @GrmayeBiniam \ud83c\uddea\ud83c\uddf7 #WeAreNSN #NewKitDay #VeniVidiBini| @weare_NSN pic.twitter.com\/MbgHHCgy3c<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/cantworkitout\/status\/2006641295263936785\" data-url=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/cantworkitout\/status\/2006641295263936785\" target=\"_blank\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-hl-processed=\"none\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">January 1, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Biniam Girmay and NSN Cycling were among the squads showing off their newly signed riders wearing their new&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":385166,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[569],"tags":[64,63,784,85],"class_list":{"0":"post-385165","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-cycling","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-cycling","11":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/385165","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=385165"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/385165\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/385166"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=385165"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=385165"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=385165"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
