  "textContent": "The new American ProTeam Modern Adventure was admitted provisionally to the Movement Pour un Cyclisme Credible (MPCC), an independent organization that sets ethical standards of conduct in pro cycling that are a higher bar than WADA anti-doping rules. The MPCC is not affiliated with any official governing body in the sport, and membership is voluntary.\n\nModern Adventure was granted provisional status after the organization considered the past history of co-founder George Hincapie and performance director Bobby Julich, who admitted doping during their careers.\n\nIn a statement from the MPCC, Hincapie directly referenced the sport's history as a reason for why he wanted his new team to join. \"I witnessed firsthand the cultural shift in the sport many years ago, and I’ve seen both the damage that comes from turning a blind eye and the progress that’s possible when athletes choose integrity,\" he said. \"By committing to the MPCC’s enhanced transparency standards, we’re proving that clean athletes can compete at the highest level and that credibility matters more than shortcuts.\"\n\nMPCC membership has dwindled slightly in recent years. It counts seven men's WorldTeams and five women's WorldTeams as members as well as a number of ProTeams, but in 2024 two men's teams – Alpecin-Deceuninck and Red Bull-Bora-Hansgrohe – left the organization. The only other team with provisional membership at the ProTeam or higher level is Unibet-Rose Rockets. [MPCC]",
