Profiles

W52–FC Porto–Mestre da Cor (UCI team code: W52) is a professional road bicycle racing team based in Sobrado, Valongo, Portugal, which participates in UCI Continental Circuits races. The title sponsors are clothing brand W52, sports club FC Porto, and paint merchants Mestre da Cor.

Founded in 2004, the team spent the first eight years competing at youth level (up to under-23) until it was registered as a UCI Continental team in 2012, under the commercial designation of OFM-Quinta da Lixa-Goldentimes. That year, the team competed for the first time in the Volta a Portugal, where it won three stages and, through Alejandro Marque, the general classification. The team won again the general classification in the following three editions, through Gustavo Veloso (2) and Rui Vinhas, and added victories in the team classification.
