The Past

The club in its current incarnation was started by a small group of cycling enthusiasts out of Annapolis, Maryland in 1992. They found a sponsor willing to subsidize the costs of racing and club administration in John Lapides, the owner of Snow Valley Spring Water, and Team Snow Valley was born. Over the next decade, TSV grew to become the most feared amateur elite team in the country, with the following wins to their credit:

  • 1st, 2003 Elite Road Race Championship (Mike Voight)
  • 1st, 2003 Collegiate Road Race Championship (Kris Hedges)
  • 1st, 2001 National Time Trial Championships (Jon Wirsing, Masters 30+)
  • 1998 All-American Team (Chris Larsen)

In 2005, the Men's Elite Team leapt into the pro ranks as the Snow Valley Presented by Seal-On Pro Cycling Team. The boys made an immediate impact with wins at Somerville and Fitchburg, and continued to figure prominently in the NRC. In 2006, the squad became the Rite-Aid Pro Cycling Team; continue to look for the boys on the podium in NRC races in '08.
