Visma unveil special edition jersey for 2026 Tour de France Femmes

Visma | Lease a Bike have revealed their special edition jersey for the 2026 Tour de France Femmes, inspired by the Dream Like a Champion campaign. 

The Dutch team launched the initiative to inspire children to pursue their cycling dreams, and their jersey for the 2026 Tour de France Femmes will feature fifteen drawings created by children illustrating their dreams. 

A drawing competition was organised by the team for children to submit their drawings, but without them knowing that their work could potentially feature on Visma | Lease a Bike’s official jersey for the biggest race on the calendar. 

The winners of the competition were visited personally by riders from the team to present them with the jersey that featured their winning drawing. 

"The reaction of children when they see their drawing on the jersey worn by our riders says it all. In that moment, they realise that their dream truly matters,” said Jasper Saeijs, CMO of Visma | Lease a Bike. 

“That is exactly what we want to achieve with this campaign: to make every child feel that they are allowed to dream, and that dreams can sometimes become reality. Dream like a champion."

Visma | Lease a Bike will arrive at the Tour in their special edition jersey with the ambition of defending their title after Pauline Ferrand-Prévot was victorious in 2025. 

The 2026 Tour de France Femmes will take place over nine stages from August 1-9, beginning in Switzerland. The race features a 21km individual time trial, a summit finish on Mont Ventoux and concludes in Nice. 

Meanwhile, the men's team will line up for the Tour on July 4, sporting an Antoni Gaudí-inspired jersey to mark the Grand Départ in Barcelona.
