Guy's Bicycles has come a long way since 1995, when four racers (Adam Means, Bart Passanante, John Sokolowski, and Kevin Perry) got together to race at Canaan. Since then, the club has gone through several names (in 1996 we were the Bucks County Mountain Club, in 1997 we became Guy's, and in 2000 we merged with the Breakaway Fitness road team), a couple of jersey designs (see pics below), and has grown to include more than 80 riders for the 2001 season. In between, we've racked up some pretty impressive results: 4th place in the Vet Expert field at Canaan in 1998; 4th in Vet Expert at Snowshoe in 2000; 3rd place in the PA Cyclocross series in 2000; and too many top individual finishes to list.

DIFFERENT JERSEY DESIGNS OVER THE YEARS

Guy's is a unique club for lots of different reasons. We field road, mountain, cyclocross, and multisport squads that have competed internationally. (Okay-the tri team went to St. Croix. It counts!) Our roster includes some of the dominant racers in the Mid-Atlantic as well as some of the newest. While we pride ourselves on being a hard-riding, competitive team, we always keep in mind that racing should be about having fun and growing the sport. That's why we welcome all riders, whether they are experienced semi-pros like Mike Yozell, beginner women like Barb Kaufmann, single speed freaks like Les Leach, or crossover athletes like Ransom Weaver (an Olympic rowing hopeful who we are distracting to get dirty on the bike). We believe that race results alone don't make a strong team and that everyone has something to contribute. We're a bike club-not a high school clique. This spirit keeps all those Guy's riders (aka "The Sea of Green") coming out at Super Series races.

We think that it's important to give back to the communities where we live, work, and ride. This year we are hosting four races; at least two of them will benefit local groups. Our July 3 road race supports the Cheltenham Fire Department; the September 9 Super Series race will raise funds for the Idlewood Environmental Station. We are also looking to develop some more specific programs in the future that will help us grow the sport. We will continue to strengthen our women's developmental program and start recruiting (some might say indoctrinating) junior riders. In the meantime we get to ride for a great local independent bike shop (www.guysbicycles.com) and a team that just won't quit.*

* Except when we are hit by deer. Louis "The Deer Slayer" Secreto was taken out (with a dented frame & trashed rear wheel) by Bambi during the Race for Chocolate. Shouldn't he get a few extra points for that?
