Paceline Goes International















Here's a letter from Major Pat Rimron who
is Serving in Iraq. The Paceline jersey would
look good is desert camo! All our Best Pat!!!

Van and Cam
How is it going!! Sorry its taken
me so long to email. We're settledin here at last.
My guys are running missions daily out in Baghdad.
I go with them sometimes but have my fair
share of paperwork to do. Itshot as in over
100s already and the bad guys keep lobbing
mortars androckets our direction daily.
Gotta love a war zone.I've been doing a good
deal of working out, inside of course. I run on
the treadmill and do the elliptical 5-6 times a
week and lift 3-4 timesa week. I've gained
a few pounds from the lifting and all the
greatfood they have here in the chow hall.
I wish I could ride but it's abit to dangerous
(not to mention HOT) out there....
There is spinningclass at 6AM but its an ordeal
to get to the place where they do it soI'm not sure
if its doable.It looks like we may actually be
back in DEC sometime. Of course thatmeans
I can do the winter CX series!! =)
Give my best to everyone!

Pat

What does This Watch Have to do With Paceline?


Kobold Watch Company,
Cannondale Bicycles,
and Paceline Bicycles
Are teaming up to
present the
KOBOLD/ CANNONDALE
Pro MTB Team.





Here is a Message from team director Charles Stanley.
KOBOLD WATCH COMPANY/CANNONDALE

The 2008 season is in full swing and I wanted
to start out by saying thanks to our sponsors
from the past few years as well as introduce
the team. This year we have a new title sponsor
in KOBOLD Watch Company.
http://www.koboldwatch.com/ They are based in
Pittsburgh, PA and the company slogan is
“Embrace Adventure”. They really stand behind
this and the support of our program is proof
of that. It was a natural partnership. KOBOLD,
like Cannondale is an American company based
in Pennsylvania. These watches should be
compared to Rolex in quality and features.
They have been to the North Pole, Everest,
and the depths of the ocean. Check out the
website for stories and bios of the KOBOLD
ambassadors. They are truly a premiere watch.
Feel free to give me a shout if you would like
to know more about the watch line or if you
would like to see one in person. The team will
be racing with them at various events.

Team Roster--
Andy Applegate
Ross Bowden
Daniel Corum
Aaron Hoag
Travis Livermon
Alex Ryan
Charles Stanley Director/Rider

The team will be focusing on National series events,
South east regional events and North Carolina events.
We will also be hitting several 12 and 24 hour events.
We have the strongest roster in team history this
season. Travis and Alex are two of the top U23 Pros
in the country and are targeting a spot on the U23
worlds team. Look for these guys on a podium near you

13.95 lbs










That's right folks. Richard Carver has put together one
smooth ride. Check out his new Cervelo RS frame built
up with SRAM's new RED group and a new ZIPP 202
Tubular wheelset. Not only will this be one of the lightest
weight bikes on the road, it will also be one of the fastest.
Good job Richard!!! You're going to make it hard on us
to keep up!!!

Help The Deamon Deacons!!!











The WFU Cycling Team needs your help! April 20th the
team is hosting the ACCC conference cycling championships.
These guys and gals have put together a fantastic Downtown
W-S Criterium that is open to all riders of every category after
the collegiate races. The team needs volunteers!!!
Unlike college basketball and football teams, these guys do
everything themselves: fundraising, organizing races, and traveling.
Couple that with studying and the work begins to pile up. So come
and help out not only your local cycling community, but Collegiate
athletes and your local Deamon Decans as well.
To volunteer please contact John Shilt at quadjranch@aol.com
