Founded in 2004, the team spent the first eight years competing at youth level (up to under-23) until it was registered as a UCI Continental team in 2013, under the commercial designation of OFM–Quinta da Lixa–Goldentimes. That year, the team competed for the first time in the Volta a Portugal, where it won three stages and, through Alejandro Marque, the general classification.[3] The team won the general classification in the following six editions – through Gustavo César (2), Rui Vinhas, Raúl Alarcón (2) and João Rodrigues – and added victories in the team classification.[4][5]
