	Cycling team - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A cycling team is a group of cyclists who join a team or are acquired and train together to compete in bicycle races of any kind - whether they are recreational or professional - and the supporting personnel.
		Cycling teams are most important in road bicycle racing, which is a team sport, but in track cycling and cyclo-cross, collaboration between team members is also important.
		Teams are generally sponsored by companies in exchange for advertising in the form of the team name, prominent placement of logos on official jerseys, and other endorsements.

		These teams have good riders, but possibly not as much money as the Pro Tour teams, so they have to aim a little lower and hope they get some breaks and invites to the big races and find some good riders and hope they don't lose them to the bigger teams.
		These cycle teams are usually quite small and don't have a lot of money, but they can be the springboard for a keen young rider to get his career started.
		These cycle teams cant ride Pro Tour events, but there are many other smaller races for them and the bigger teams do enter these races from time to time, so it is good experience for the new or up and coming Professional.

	How do cycling teams work? - By Daniel Engber - Slate Magazine (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		Cycling team strategy revolves around the notion that it's easier to pedal when there's someone in front of you to cut the wind.
		The various teams in a road race tend to ride in one tight clump, called a peloton, so each competitor gets the benefit of drafting.
		Team leaders like Armstrong tend to hang back in these clusters to conserve energy, while their teammates take turns out in front.
