You would think that if a company (Cannondale) came out with a brand new performance quad and then offered to "sponsor" 25 racers (AMA license holders of course) for FREE at a national event for the day,giving them access to a free bike,a free jersey to keep and all the factory support they needed that there would be a line a mile long full of applicants. Instead of constantly ragging on new companies with new ideas(just because you can), why not take them up on this and give your regular mount a rest for the weekend and thrash theirs? This is called "putting your money where your mouth is"... Is it me, or does this seem like a no brainer? C'mon Guys (and girls). There is more info on the web site!!!!!!!!
