2007 season recap 

With a brand new title sponsor, a bolstered and powerful roster, and an ambitious race schedule, 2007 marked the beginning of a new era for the Legal Sea Foods Pro-Am Cycling team.  A bigger budget and a greater range of talent meant that we would be more competitive in any race we entered.  For eight months our 10-man squad raced nearly every weekend, through the pounding rain and bitter cold of a New England April to the blistering bake of July asphalt.  The team attended more than 40 official races and competed in dozens of uncounted training criteriums, hill climbs, and time trials.  And in order to compete at the level in which we did, the team collectively trained more than 8,000 hours, a lot of time spent in the saddle.

The team tasted success with more than 25 top-20 finishes, nearly every team member contributing to the count.  Season highlights include Ryan Fleming’s stellar breakaway abilities as seen in multiple top-5 criterium finishes, Alain Ferry’s 3rd place at the Norwell Circuit Race, and Ryan and Peter’s 6th and 8th place at the indefatigable Tour of the Hilltowns.   

The team would like to thank all of its sponsors for their support throughout the year.  Without their help, none of our success would be possible.  A special thank you to Legal Sea Foods whose amazing support made the team possible.  Thank you to MetLife and unlose.it, the team’s two presenting sponsors.  The team thanks VeloEuropa imports for its stellar Cyfac racing bicycles.  Thank you to Glaceau, makers of Vitaminwater.  And thank you to Landry’s Bicycles and S&W Sports, two of the best bicycle shops in the country.

A stronger and more ambitious team will return for 2008 with key riders signed in order to strengthen our already talent-laden team.  With a predicted larger budget we also anticipate racing a countrywide schedule with several National Racing Calendar events in the mix.  We are also set to direct the Turtle Pond Circuit Race for the fourth year with the possibility of an even bigger criterium to happen in Boston.  We hope to continue to improve our relationships with sponsors with better feedback and representation.  A new weekly Enewsletter will help keep our supporters as up-to-date as possible.

2007 was a great year and a very good starting point.  Next season, however, is shaping up to be the best yet.  We hope you’ll continue to tune in here for the latest news and we look forward to your support in 2008.
