Geschichte

The CPA’s main objective is that of protecting and improving the position of riders by:
- making them take an active part – exactly like the AIOCC and the AIGCP – in the works and decisions made by the UCI
- having their permanent representatives in the main UCI’s commissions as well as in the Council of the UCI ProTour (CUPT)
- coordinating the activities of national associations and acting as a reference point in case of problems going beyond national borders
- contributing to spreading a better image of the anti-doping fight. For several years now 2% of all the prizes won have been given as a contribution to fight doping. It is important to point out that this measure is taken in no other professional sport
- establishing reliable work relations between riders and their employers and fixing – in agreement with employers - minimum wages as well as social coverage measures associated with the risks that riders run in practicing their profession
- improving the relations between riders and all the stakeholders of the cycling world
- defending their rights before institutions when practicing their profession.
