For immediate release:

We are pleased to announce the formation of the CRCA/Sid’s-Cannondale racing team for the 2007 season. The team will have road and mountain bike rosters and will race locally and throughout the Northeast.

The team is primarily sponsored by Sid’s Bike Shop at 235 East 34th Street in Manhattan and Cannondale bikes. Other sponsors include Ritchey Design bike components, Zoltan Coaching and Media-Blasters.

Tim McNeely, the General Manager of Sid’s Bikes says, “In what is shaping up to be an explosive year for Sid’s Bikes, the Sid’s-Cannondale racing team is the icing on the cake. I can’t wait to see the blur of orange and black in Central Park, on 9W, at the races, and on the streets of New York City. This is a great group of guys on a great Cannondale bicycle.”
