NRC Champion Luis Amaran and Alejandro Borrajo to Lead Squad at San Dimas Stage Race and Redlands Bicycle Classic

Northvale, NJ (March 18, 2011) -- The Jamis/Sutter Home Pro Cycling Team will kick off the 2011 North American season in California at the San Dimas Stage Race on March 25 and Redlands Bicycle Classic in California on March 31. Directeur Sportif Sebastian Alexandre made the announcement.

"We’re excited to return to the US and start the NRC season," said Alexandre. "We’ve got a strong squad with complementary talents, who together can deliver stage victories and top GC placements."

NRC Champion Luis Amaran tops the Jamis/Sutter Home line-up for the San Dimas Stage Race and Redlands Bicycle Classic. A proven force in stage races, Amaran took third in the final road race at San Dimas and in the opening circuit race at Redlands in 2010. Sprinter Alejandro Borrajo, whose victory in the final stage of the Redlands Bicycle Classic was among the team’s highlights last season, is also a favorite. Borrajo’s brother Anibal is also a force to be reckoned with, as evidenced by his performance at the UCI 2.2 Vuelta de Chile in February where he claimed two podium and two top 10 finishes in the nine-stage race.

Amaran and the Borrajo brothers will be joined by veteran Jamis/Sutter Home riders Tyler Wren, who finished in the top 10 overall at San Dimas last year, Andy Guptill, and Nick Frey. Former Argentinean national track champion Fernando Antogna and Eric Schildge will make their North American debuts in Jamis/Sutter Home colors at San Dimas and Redlands.
