Tucson, AZ November 6, 2009: TriSports.com has announced the creation of Arizona’s newest cycling club in partnership with Eclipse Racing. The TriSports Cycling/Eclipse Racing Club is a joint effort between the two organizations to increase the level of participation in road cycling in the state of Arizona and elevate the quality and experience of road racing events. “As a retail bike shop with an extensive service department, it simply made sense to begin our own cycling club in order to further our support of cycling in Arizona”, said Seton Claggett, president and owner of TriSports.com. Through increasing the numbers of active club cyclists in the state, the club hopes to have a positive impact on bike safety and advocacy, with an emphasis on responsible riding by all club members. The club is split into two different groups – a men’s and women’s supported category 1 and 2 racing team, managed by Scott Blanchard of Pyramid Coaching and Tammy Lamb, and a group of club riders of all abilities. The club’s official kick-off date and membership drive is set for November 14th and 15th at the TriSports.com Retail Store. The weekend’s event will include a Sunday “pancake ride” with free breakfast for all riders provided by TriSports.com post-ride. The club’s official inaugural ride will be El Tour de Tucson on Saturday, November 21st. For more information, please visit www.trisportscycling.com.
