ConectCar joins Brasil Ride's team of partner brands

Electronic payment company starts supporting cycling events organized by the agency promoting sports events

Sao Paulo-SP) - The Brasil Ride agency, the main promoter of cycling events in the country, and which also has great prominence in the realization of mountain races, announces the arrival of another company to the select group of partnerships in favor of the growth of these sports. This is ConectCar, a company for automatic payment of gates, founded in 2012, which is present in all toll roads in Brazil and in more than 300 parking lots, shopping malls and airports.

"We recently had the pleasure of announcing Land Rover and Oakley among our partners for the 2019 season. Now, ConectCar, another company outside the cycling industry, arrives to add and help us grow our events across the country. We are very happy with this moment. Expectations are getting better ", comments Mario Roma, founder of Brasil Ride. "I also had the pleasure of suggesting Henrique Avancini as ambassador for this partnership. No one better than the world champion of MTB Marathon and three-time champion of Brasil Ride to be with us at this moment", adds Mario Roma.

Brasil Ride promotes cycling events throughout Brazil, uniting participants from more than 30 countries in search of overcoming challenges. For ConectCar, the challenge moves achievements, seeking to leave the track free of obstacles to unite people to their goals. And now, the two join forces for a world where what really matters is doing what you love.

"ConectCar is a mobility company and we strongly believe that several modes are essential, among them the bicycle, which is fully linked in this context. In parallel, we believe in sport and cycling. The Brasil Ride ultramarathon is one of the most important events in the world MTB circuit and we wanted to be close to them. Henrique Avancini is a world champion and we, as a Brazilian company, want to encourage the promotion of the sport, so that more talents and more presence in the big events will appear, such as Brasil Ride. With that, we will help make our country a world power in cycling ", highlights Felix Cardamone, president of ConectCar.

ConectCar, in addition to Land Rover and Oakley, joins important companies that are partners of Brasil Ride. They are Shimano, Unidas - Car Rental and Specialized, the three sponsors, and Full Gas, LAF - Insurance Broker, La Maglia, Red Bull and Thule, supporters. All of these 11 brands are extremely important in the growth process of the two sports promoted by the agency, cycling (mountain biking, road and gravel) and mountain running, also known as trail running.
