While much of the current cycling buzz might revolve around whether Lance Armstrong will ride in the 2009 Tour de France, Fort Lewis has its own cycling news...Beginning January 1, the Fort Lewis College cycling team will move over to the Department of Athletics. Previously as a club sport, FLC Cycling operated under Recreation Services. However, given the cycling team’s tremendous national success, the move makes sense. With the support of the Athletic Department and the joint leadership of Michael Engleman and Rick Crawford, the FLC cycling team will be in an even better position to stay ahead of the collegiate cycling peleton.
Fort Lewis College Cycling is the winner of eleven national championships and is the reigning USA Cycling Collegiate Mountain Bike National Champions. The Skyhawks will race December 11-14 at the Cyclocross National Championship in Kansas City, MO. Good luck this weekend. Allez! Allez!
