7-Eleven Cliqq Road Bike Philippines finished the season as the highest-ranked Philippine Continental team in the 2026 Asia Tour standings of the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI), the world governing body of cycling. The Manila Standard reported the ranking on November 5.
The team placed 22nd among 44 Continental teams. It collected 233 points in the ranking period, which ran from January 20 to October 18. Continental is the third level of professional road teams.
Two other Philippine teams were on the list. Victoria Sports Pro Cycling placed 26th with 218 points. Go For Gold placed 37th with 40 points in what the Manila Standard called its final season.
Where the points came from
The Manila Standard listed the riders who earned most of the team’s points.
| Rider | Points | Main results |
|---|---|---|
| Daniel Yon Hin (Mauritius) | 90 | Podium finishes at the Mauritius national championships |
| Ronnilan Quita | 53 | Philippine national championship win (50 points) and the Tour of Thailand (3 points) |
| Antoine Huby (France) | 46 | Second overall and a Stage 3 win at the Tour of Mauritius; 23rd overall at Le Tour de Langkawi |
| Cormac McGeough (Ireland) | 16 | Ninth overall at the China Xizang Trans-Himalaya |
| Jonel Carcueva | 15 | Fourth at the national championships |
Carcueva has since moved to the Standard Insurance team, the newspaper said. The team is led by sports director Ric Rodriguez. It was founded by Bong Sual and is owned by Vic Paterno. The team also raced in Indonesia, Morocco and China this year.
A high-altitude race in China
One of the team’s best results came in August at the Trans-Himalaya race in China. The five-day race took riders through elevations of 3,000 to 4,000 meters above sea level. McGeough finished 59 seconds behind the overall winner, Raman Tsishkou.
Five of the team’s six riders finished the race: McGeough, Quita, Jaypee Olarte, Daniel Guld of Denmark and Yon Hin. Mervin Corpuz had to stop after a crash on the first stage. Rodriguez praised his riders for taking on the race even though the team was invited at the last minute, the Manila Standard said.
Time trial win in Taiwan
After the ranking period closed, the team raced the Taiwan KOM Challenge on November 1 and 2. KOM stands for King of the Mountains. CCN Sport, a maker of cycling clothing, reported that the event opened with an individual time trial, with the main race on the second day.
Corpuz won the individual time trial, the Manila Standard reported. Quita placed sixth in the time trial and ninth in the road race, with a time of 4:50:31.40. He also received the event’s Friendship Award.
CCN Sport said the team sent four riders to Taiwan: Quita, Corpuz, Olarte and newcomer Yannick Reyes. It described the trip as part of the team’s preparation for next season. It also reported that the organizers had announced a backup route for the main race because of safety concerns on the Taroko route.
Quita thanked Paterno, Sual, Rodriguez and his teammates for their support.
