Sponsors Lining Up For 2010
While the management of NashvilleCyclist.com diligently worked on their roster they were also quietly working behind the scenes to nail down sponsors for 2010. The team lost sponsorship prior to the 2009 season, but they recently struck deals to strengthen the team’s presence and ability to compete well into the future.
Murfreesboro Outdoor and Bicycle (MOAB), Blue Competition Cycles, Ligero Wheelworks, and Evans, Jones and Reynolds, P.C. have all joined to support the racing team in its quest to be the premier amateur team in the region. “I am honored these businesses have chosen to invest in NashvilleCyclist.com for 2010. Their willingness to partner with us is a testament to our hard work for the last three years, which is taking us to a level I never imagined. These opportunities are attributed to having such good people representing our team,” states team owner/manager Tim Hall.
The team embraces its official amateur status, but it will not prevent them from presenting themselves as professional as possible. Riders who felt the financial pinch during the 2009 season are energized by these new relationships. “Combine our new roster with the huge opportunities afforded us by our sponsorship relations and I think the 2010 season will put NashvilleCyclist.com on par with any amateur team in the Southeast,” says Category 1 rider Dave Worth.
MOAB is a familiar partner as they have sponsored the summer NashvilleCyclist.com Wednesday night criterium series for the last few years. “It’s another great opportunity for MOAB to support the local cycling community through the NashvilleCyclist.com team. It’s a good fit and win-win relationship for both sides,” says MOAB owner Mark Dement.
The checklist of professional imagery includes competing on the right bicycle and wheels, which is where Blue Competition Cycles out of Norcross, GA and Ligero Wheelworks in Chattanooga fit into the picture. “Blue and Ligero are two outstanding opportunities for us to not only race on high quality equipment, but also to help establish reputable brands here in the Middle Tennessee market,” states Hall.
Until this sponsorship Blue Competition Cycles lacked a presence in Tennessee. “Blue Competition Cycles is very excited to support NashvilleCyclist. We are looking forward to a successful season and developing a relationship with a great organization looking to grow the competitive sport of cycling,” said Blue representative Cleve Blackwell.
While the team has lined up product sponsors for 2010 they are also seeking cash investments into their program. The Nashville law firm Evans, Jones and Reynolds, P.C. was the first to jump on this opportunity. These investments are poured directly into the team’s ability to travel and compete, as well as outfit the team in uniforms filled with sponsor logos.
“We realize the economy is tough, but investing in quality is always a winning bet. We know we can deliver a favorable return through the team and website,” Hall stated. Others have shown serious interest as well, “We have presentation meetings lined up, and with our tiered investment approach there are several valued options to choose from,” Hall added.
