DPD has partnered with Army Cycling to support the body responsible for cycling participation at all levels from promoting access to cycling as a means of transport around bases to training elite athletes. The Army Cycling Union (ACU) was created in 1950 to encourage cycling as a pastime and promote all branches of the sport. Regardless of age, gender or experience, the ACU is committed to promoting and facilitating cycling across the Army. As well as facilitating on camp Unit bikes as a healthy way to get around, Army Cycling also supports riders at all levels of the sport across road racing, time trials, e-racing, gravel, cyclocross, BMX and mountain biking.

As part of the deal, DPD will become the headline sponsor on the Army Cycling team jerseys. The Army Global Cycling Club has over 800 signed up members who take part in events and racing from the Army's own events, right up to national championships and the UCI World Championships and Masters. The support will also help facilitate mass participation events from taster days through to novice races and the Road Race Championships, as well as keeping entry fees low.

Tim Jones, Director of Marketing, Communications & Sustainability DPDgroup UK commented, "We are incredibly proud to be working alongside Army Cycling. It is an amazing organisation that supports soldiers at every level and clearly plays such an important role in army life, for so many. Cycling is a sustainable and healthy alternative to other forms of transport, and it is inspiring to see how Army Cycling promotes the benefits to all ages and abilities, as well as the roll it can play in terms of rehabilitation and keeping active. The new jerseys are fantastic, and we look forward to seeing them leading the way at events far and wide."

Colonel Nick Mackenzie, Chair of Army Cycling Union commented, "We are hugely grateful to DPD for their support. They are a big household name that is already a long way down the road towards Net Zero and a big promoter of sustainable transport. Our mission is to inspire soldiers to cycle and create opportunities for everyone to achieve their cycling goals and DPD's support will go a long way in helping us succeed."
