Path to the Pro's documentary is in Production!

I am happy to announce that the new documentary project for Pro Road Access Productions in underway!

In Nov of 2010. We set out to create a feature length documentary on the state of cycling development in the USA, with a goal toward success in Europe.

The goal of the doc is to cover the some of the past, present and future of cycling development. From the early days of the 7-11 team to the current crop of graduates to the Pro Tour.

The central "hub" on the doc is the USA cylcing U23 program with it's house in Izegem Belgium. American cyclist from all over are invited to live, train and race in Belgium for extended periods of time. This program was started 10 years ago by Noel Dejonkheere. In the winter months, it is home to our U.S. Cyclocross teams.

Over the years, riders such as Tyler Farrar, Taylor Phinney, Tejay Van Garderen and MANY more have passed thru the residency program at "Belgium house." 

I will also devote time to grassroots programs in the U.S. such as the National High school mountain bike league, Collegiate programs and of course, various, U23 development teams and the four American Pro Tour teams, Radioshack, Garmin Slipstream, BMC and HTC Highroad.

Stay tuned....
