BMC Racing Team: Most Aggressive Team of the 2008 Tour of California!
2/25/08
Today’s march from Santa Clarita to Pasadena closed the book on the 2008 Amgen Tour of California. The BMC racing team brought to the race a group with a potent mix of experienced professionals and young up and comers. The team far exceeded any moderate pre-race goals. This fact was confirmed when the race organizers lauded the team as being the Most Aggressive Team of the entire tour. Add to that the other accomplishments, and it is not hard to understand why Gavin Chilcott and John Lelangue glowed after the finish of the race. “We are very honoured that the organization decided to recognize the team as a whole,” Gavin Chilcott said after the end of the stage. “This is not a standard award, but has been offered to us in response to a message from the media regarding our team’s performance over the past week.
