✨ Welcome, Sara Poidevin! ✨

We are excited to welcome as Mentor Program Lead for the Global Relay Bridge the Gap Fund.

Sara has a unique connection to BTG as a supported athlete, mentee, and mentor. A respected Canadian professional cyclist, she has represented Canada internationally and raced for top teams including EF Education–Cannondale.

In her new role, Sara will lead BTG’s mentorship program, connecting emerging Canadian cyclists with experienced current and former professionals — supporting riders on and off the bike.

🗣️ “Sara’s passion and experience make her the perfect leader for our mentorship program. She understands the challenges athletes face because she’s lived them, and her leadership and commitment to supporting others will make a meaningful impact on the next generation of Canadian cyclists.” — Leah Kirchmann, Managing Director

💙 Thank you to for four years of dedicated leadership as Mentor Lead. BTG is stronger because of her impact, and we are proud to continue supporting Karol-Ann in her role as President of the !
