At Rothai, we believe cycling is a passion that burns bright all year round, regardless of the weather. It's about grit, commitment, and the thrill of the chase. That's why we are incredibly proud to announce that Rothai is an official sponsor of the RWB Cycling Ireland eSports Winter Series for 2025/26.
Who Are RWB (Racing Without Borders)?
Before we dive in, we wanted to introduce the incredible community hosting this series. RWB (Racing Without Borders) was founded in 2020 by passionate Irish cyclists and has grown into Ireland's first-ever UCI-sanctioned E-Racing club. Their mission is to push the boundaries of e-cycling within a safe, all-inclusive, and fun environment. As their name suggests, they've created a global community "without borders," uniting over 4,300 riders of all abilities who share a love for the sport and a bit of "craic."

The Rise of the Indoor Athlete
The world of indoor cycling has exploded. What was once seen as a simple way to stay fit during the dark winter months has evolved into a fiercely competitive and globally respected sport. Platforms like Zwift have transformed our living rooms into virtual racing circuits, connecting thousands of riders in real-time, high-stakes competition.
This isn't just "training" anymore—it's racing. The dedication, tactical skill, and raw power required to compete at the top level of e-sports cycling are on par with any road race, and we are thrilled to support a series that showcases this incredible talent.
Our Commitment: Road, Trail, and Virtual
Our brand was born from a passion for all forms of cycling. While our gear is built to perform in the toughest outdoor conditions, we know that the modern cyclist's journey seamlessly blends the virtual and the real. The pain in your legs from a virtual climb is just as real as one on the road.
By sponsoring the RWB Winter Series, we're putting our support behind the community that grinds it out indoors, day in and day out. This series, held on the world's premier platform, Zwift, is the perfect battleground.
For anyone new to the platform or looking to join the action, you can get started by signing up at the official Zwift website.

We're not just sponsoring this event—we're taking part in it.
Our own founder, Eddie Ryce, will be clipping in and racing the series himself. He'll be putting our latest prototype indoor gear to the test and sharing the suffering with the rest of the RWB community.
You can follow his journey, watch the racing action, and maybe even see him get dropped, by tuning into his live stream. He'll be broadcasting every race, starting November 14th, live on the official Rothai Channel. https://www.youtube.com/@rothaicc/streams
We couldn't be more excited to be a part of this fantastic series. We wish all competitors the best of luck. We’ll see you in the virtual bunch!
