Our story

It’s all in the name. Domestique is the loyal servant of cycling fans with one purpose: to sharpen their passion and enrich the way they follow the sport.

What began as an account on X (Twitter) has grown into a full-fledged media brand since June 2025, following a successful crowdfunding campaign that raised over €300,000 to bring our vision to life.

Our vision is clear: to blend information, engagement and depth across diverse media formats, brought to life with a fresh and passionate voice. All free, with no paywall  because we believe the future of sports media lies in accessibility and community, not exclusivity.

Our goal? To be the world’s most likeable cycling media platform. If we achieve that, we're sure that our future will be bright and we will become on of the leading media outlets in the world of cycling.

All the best,
