Sarah Roy will remain with the Orica-Scott Women's team through to the end of 2019 after signing a two-year contract. The 31-year-old joined the team in 2015 from Poitou-Charentes.Futuroscope.86 and has become a key rider on the roster.
In 2017, Roy has enjoyed her best season to date with a stage win of the OVO Energy Women's Tour, victory in the GP Cham-Hagendorn, and third place at GP de Plouay.
"I am really proud to be staying with Orica-Scott for what will be my fourth season," said Roy, the 2014 Australian criterium champion. "It is one of those teams that gets a lot of riders showing interest every year and the exposure is growing all the time. It definitely feels like more than a team, we've created a real family culture that is special to be a part of.

"All of the staff, including our mechanics, directors, swannies, managers and everyone involved in administration are as passionate and dedicated as the riders and we experience all of the highs and lows together as a team."
For Roy, it was an easy decision to re-sign with the team as she added the holistic approach from Orica has helped her grow and develop as both a rider and person.
"Orica-Scott not only supports my goals on the bike, but also my aspirations off the bike and it is values like these that are important to me," she said. "I am very thankful to Gerry Ryan who goes beyond merely being a team owner and sponsor with the huge part he plays in the creation of culture and commitment within the team."
