The team gathers a dynamic squad of women: Rebecca Much, multiple US champion and U23 world time trial silver medallist; Megan Elliot, former US road race champion and Saturn team member; Anna Milkowski, multi-year pro on Rona, Lipton, and Advil/Chapstick; Kathleen Billington, ex-Diet Cheerwine and Connecticut state champion; Robin Farina, a Tennessee talent; Andrea Myers, a young Illinois speedster; Hiroko Shimada, Yale researcher and Japanese national team member; and Mandy Lozano, fresh off a top-10 at cyclo-cross nationals. Former professional Greg Wolf will direct the team with the assistance of Kyle Wolfe, a top New England Master's racer. The ladies will race on ride on handcrafted Victory bicycles from Aegis, complete in team-colours. Targetraining will use Champion Systems clothing, DMT shoes, Speedplay pedals, and DeFeet accessories. The team's first target race will be the newly-unveiled US open cycling championship from Williamsburg to Richmond, Virgina. 2007 Targetraining Women's RosterAndrea Myers |
