Our partners prove that just because they don’t necessarily race a bike doesn’t mean they’re not on the roster. While each of our 10 team riders is vital to our success on the bike, it’s the partners who support us and, essentially, make our program possible.
For 2010 we are thrilled to be working with an ensemble of some of the world’s most well-known and respected brands. They support us financially, logistically, and emotionally, each sharing our vision, excited about our potential, and believing in us.
MetLife Insurance Company
Our partnership with MetLife is an ideal fit: in a great bicycle race there are a lot of “ifs.” Being prepared, focused and diligent is the only way to push through the uncertain. Today, a time when consumers are feeling a greater financial burden than ever before, MetLife is helping millions of customers create their own personal safety net against the uncertainty. We’re pleased to represent the perseverance, diligence and untarnished reputation of the MetLife brand. We believe in the values of this company based on more than 138 years of integrity, social responsibility, strong leadership and financial strength.

Back Bay Bicycles

We are accessable via the Green Line (Hynes Convention Center) and the #1 Bus. From Hynes, turn right at the Mass Ave enterance and walk one block. From the Bus, get off at Mass.

Sheehan Graphic Design continues to prosper based upon fundamental principles of high quality design and one-on-one attention to its clients. We recognize that we were hired to express the nuance of our client’s voice and message – not merely our own.
Echappe Equipment
Échappé Equipment provides athletes the opportunity to use high-end cycling wheels and equipment through a unique rental program. This program gives athletes the chance to experience the benefits of equipment that would otherwise be inaccessible to them. Elite equipment is prohibitively expensive to entry-level athletes who are unwilling to buy or uncertain about their level of commitment when the activity is so costly. Consequently, Échappé’s rental program provides the best of both worlds; the customers will be able to experience high-end equipment benefits while not being pressured into buying the product.
Press Forward
