The Dawn of a New Era…..
Web-Op / Focus Cyclery join forces to create new 2011 AZ Road / Cyclocross Team
PHOENIX (Jan. 07, 2011) – Web-Op SEO, Focus Cyclery and Treehouse Group are pleased to announce the launch of Web-Op/Focus Racing, an East Valley Phoenix-based cycling team that brings together well-recognized Phoenix-area riders committed to the development of Arizona bicycle racing in a fun and positive environment.
Over the past decade, most of the current team members have ridden and trained extensively together, but have competed on different Phoenix-area teams. The formation of Web-Op/Focus Racing represents the first opportunity for many of these experienced cyclists to race together as one team.
Web-Op/Focus Racing is comprised of 19 cyclists ranging from experienced Category 2 riders to those new to competitive racing. Past years of recruiting, supporting and training younger East Valley riders have provided the team with a cadre of future professional cyclists. Several have already achieved impressive results on the national stage, including fourth place 2010 U.S. Cyclocross Junior Mens National Champion Cypress Gorry and U23 National Team Member and first place U23 Hill Climb Arizona State Champion Zach Keller.
Collectively, members of the Web-Op/Focus Racing team have amassed over 100 podium finishes in 2010 and expect to far exceed that in 2011.
In 2011, the team will focus on races throughout the West, while maintaining a strong presence in local Arizona Bicycle Racing Association events. You will see the Web-Op/Focus Racing team in force at the Focus Criterium on April 23 and most all other local and regional races in 2011.
