"Ride Roaarsome" is the motto of the Roaar Cyclic Club, which wants to offer cycling enthusiasts in and around Cologne a place to go. STEVENS is the new cooperation partner of the club, for which the experience of cycling is the main focus. The Roaar Cycling Club consists of cycling enthusiasts around the professional road cyclist and podcaster Rick Zabel, who wants to work out exciting routes together with his comrades Oliver, Patrick, Vincent and the newly added guides Valeska, Jen and Sebastian, to work out and ride exciting routes. The fun of cycling and the sense of community are more important than simply counting watts. That's why the club is open to all cyclists, no matter what level of ability.

The cornerstones are the tours and joint rides, such as the Roaarsome Road Rides, the Roaarsome Monuments or the crisp Roaarsome Shorties, all routes that allow you to experience the flair of the Tour of Lombardy, Paris-Roubaix or the Tour de France - only in the Rhineland, and not in between Bergamo and Como, in the Roubaix Velodrome or at the Col du Tourmalet. All routes can be viewed on the Roaar website and are stored in Komoot so that they can be used with GPS bike computers or mobile data terminals.

STEVENS supports the Roaar Cycling Club with the Arcalis Custom Road Bike in Chrome Red Black equipped with the Sram Force eTap AXS radio gear system. The bike was used for the first time on the Easter weekend at the one-day classic Pari-Roaarbaix and immediately impressed with its excellent aerodynamic properties and thus its energy-saving characteristics. But the Arcalis not only cut a fine figure on smooth asphalt, the aero road bike also handled the rough cobblestone and gravel sections of the 80-kilometre route with ease.
