Two wheels in more ways than one!

As you know we sponsor a lot of athletes and not all of them are pro cyclists. We also help several motorsport riders one of whom is 2006 Moto GP world champion Nicky Hayden. Below is a quick update from his team on how testing is going on the new bike before the season start in March. Nicky is riding and Tarmac SL and an Epic Marathon, all our Moto athletes are really excited about our support and are learning to enjoy the sport of cycling as much as we do.
We are really excited to get these guys on our bikes along with their own "bikes". It's always fun to have some cross over events and an opportunity to ride with World Champions of this stature should not be missed.
Here are some pics that Riders Club member Nic Sims took last week when he was rollin' in SoCal.

That's awesome!!! Cycling has a good relationship with motorcycles....Now we need a little 50 at Specialized to ride around on.

I am sure it would be great product placement to have a Respol replica on the Eastern demo trailer...

I noticed Hayden was all decked out in Specialized gear on MTV's Kentucky Kid that ran late last year... now I know why.
