A new location welcomes Pro Teams and their athletes, as the Ski Classics Season XIV starts this weekend in Bad Gastein, Austria, with the Bad Gastein Pro Team Tempo and Bad Gastein Criterium.

Their brightest star, Britta Johansson Norgren, retired with six Champion titles after last season, and no one can really replace her. But the team has always been more than just a platform for Britta to shine.
