Team Alcolin Bostik

Meet the Team!

We are a couple of regular full-time working amateur racing cyclists. We compete regularly in both mountain bike and road events. We're not the youngest or fastest out there, however we are great competitors and believe in giving everything a full go.

Thanks to our sponsors Alcolin Permoseal and Bostik, and our sub-sponsors UPS, Polyoak, Rheem, Wacker and Marsing & Co, who came back to support us for a 2nd year.

Epic '05 is going to be tougher than '04 - the route is more technical, its longer and there's probably more climbing. Also the level of competition, especially from foreign entrants, is likely to be higher. So we're going to have to work very hard to beat our 32nd place from last year. We're telling ourselves that top 20 is achievable, but much will depend on work and other distractions, and how much training time we can get in.
