‘Team Toshiba’ will be an Australia professional track cycling team and will debut at the end of this month during the Sydney round of the 2007-2008 UIC World Cup Classic, which will see over 400 riders from 48 nations descend on the city on 30 November for 17 events.
“Toshiba’s support will provide extra pedalling power for our athletes and give more of our talented cyclists an opportunity to shine,” said Cycling Australia CEO, Graham Fredericks. “As an organisation we feel Australia’s chances heading towards the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing are heightened dramatically with Toshiba’s support.”
Team Toshiba will include dual Olympic gold medallist, Ryan Bayley and reigning Olympic and World Champion, Anna Meares.
