Velonews.com: Interview with Doug Ellis

Velonews.com talks to Doug Ellis about the team’s performance during the Giro d’Italia.

Said Doug about the pink jersey: “It was huge for the team. It was also important to us and to our sponsors that any of the five who could go across the line would be a U.S. rider. Even though it’s an international program, we’re an American team, plus with the 20th anniversary of (Andy) Hampsten, it was important to have a U.S. rider first across the line and Christian was perfect. That was real exciting and I have the jersey here in my backpack.”
