Hear me out as, on the face of it, this may seem like a non-starter of an idea, BUT...
Halfords have switched their sponsorship from Cooke to a men's team. Nicole could have signed for a foreign team but she wanted to stay in the UK and work with British girls. So she formed her own team (Vision1 Racing) and is, at present, without sponsor. Maybe we could do something?
Now, it's unrealistic to expect us to stump up enough to be a major sponsor but every little helps. What'chya reckon?
I'm sure Nicole will find a big money sponsor in the near future. I hope so at least!
Btw, I posted this is Café for better coverage.
(Did you know she's only 25! She's been on the scene for so many years you'd think she was older!)
