Felt Racing has extended its 2004 sponsorship of the Colavita Olive Oil Pro Cycling Team through the end of 2006. With Felt, the Division III NJ-based team will be looking to build on the success it enjoyed in 2004 as it tackles a complete US pro calendar, along with the possibility of some non-US racing.
“This first year with Felt was fantastic and we are so happy to have them back for the next two years. The athletes can't say enough good things about the bikes and from a management perspective, they bring so many other benefits to the table. Felt is a passionate, pro-active, easy bunch to work with – the kind of company anyone would want in their corner”, stated John A. Profaci, president of Team Colavita Sports, LLC.
Felt company namesake and master frame builder, Jim Felt spoke highly of the team in saying, “The Colavita squad has been tremendous for us – it's a great fit. Obviously, they had a tremendous season and we are looking forward to continued success on the bike, but it's more than that. This team is a team of pros and they all really understand the job on and off the bike. Colavita management deserves a lot of credit for the program they've built. We can't wait to get racing again.”
