**AT85 Pro Cycling** was a British [UCI Continental](/source/UCI_Continental) [cycling team](/source/Cycling_team) founded in 2017 by sports director Tim Elverson.[2] The team folded on 17 March 2023.[3]

## Team history

The team formed as Bike Channel–Canyon in 2017. It recorded three wins during its inaugural season, all at the [Tour of Quanzhou Bay](/source/Tour_of_Quanzhou_Bay). Stage 1 was won by [Harry Tanfield](/source/Harry_Tanfield), with [Rory Townsend](/source/Rory_Townsend) taking the lead in the minor classifications.[4] [Max Stedman](/source/Max_Stedman) won stage 2 of the race taking the lead on the Queen stage, he held the lead at the end of the following stage to win the race overall.[5]

On 1 January 2018, the team announced that [Eisberg](/source/Halewood_International) had stepped up its sponsorship to allow the team to function after Bike Channel went into administration.[6]

The team enjoyed two hugely successful seasons. Some of the highlights of their 2018 campaign include [Harry Tanfield](/source/Harry_Tanfield) winning stage one of the [Tour de Yorkshire](/source/2018_Tour_de_Yorkshire), which led to him being signed by World Tour team [Team Katusha–Alpecin](/source/Katusha%E2%80%93Alpecin). The team won the overall title in the [Tour Series](/source/Tour_Series), the UK's premier circuit racing championship. [Charlie Tanfield](/source/Charlie_Tanfield) became a world champion in the [UCI Track Cycling World Championships](/source/2018_UCI_Track_Cycling_World_Championships) team pursuit and won a gold medal in the individual pursuit at the [Commonwealth Games](/source/Cycling_at_the_2018_Commonwealth_Games). He was also crowned British under-23-time trial champion on the road. [Ryan Christensen](/source/Ryan_Christensen), [Max Stedman](/source/Max_Stedman), and [Charlie Tanfield](/source/Charlie_Tanfield) were selected to race at the under-23 [UCI Road World Championships](/source/2018_UCI_Road_World_Championships) in Austria, the latter in the time trial. At the [Tour of Britain](/source/2018_Tour_of_Britain), the team recorded three top-10 stage finishes, [Max Stedman](/source/Max_Stedman) was 20th in the general classification, and Alex Paton won the [Eisberg](/source/Halewood_International) sprints jersey.

2019 was another successful year for the team with multiple UK and European podiums. Some highlights included winning the Tour Series overall title for a second year running, a top 10 in the [Tour de Yorkshire](/source/2019_Tour_de_Yorkshire) and the [Tour of Britain](/source/2019_Tour_of_Britain), and the [Eisberg](/source/Halewood_International) sprints jersey at the Tour of Britain for the second time.

In December 2020, Elverson announced that the team had acquired sponsorship from British sunglasses maker 'SunGod' and that the team's name for the 2021 racing season would become Canyon DHB SunGod.[7]
