We've been so focused on road racing, because of our great success at the professional level with Team Exergy and because of our own backgrounds in the sport, that we've neglected an entire community of talented and passionate cyclists: triathletes.  Triathlon is an impressive sport for a number of reasons not least of which is its http://williamscycling.blogspot.com/2011/11/have-you-heard-of-little-thing-called.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Unknown)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1764803750152628378.post-649091993781517637Tue, 25 Oct 2011 21:46:00 +00002011-10-25T14:46:44.063-07:00It's fun to have a cycling company. Everyone who works here at Williams loves to ride, and if we're not in the office making the magic happen we're out riding, racing or slashing up trails. It's cool that our passion is our work, and it's fun to have sweet gear and the time to ride it.

Okay, technically the season kicked off two weeks ago at CrossVegas, and lots of people around the country and the world have been ripping the CX for quite some time already.
