The Amgen Tour of California is attracting a caliber of riders in its first year that is evidence of the high esteem the race is being given by the international cycling community. This field is unprecedented in the history of modern American cycling and we're excited to host such an accomplished group of cyclists.

For us, this is a great time to invest. The number of recreational cyclists has never been higher. For me, it all points upward -- that we are on the upswing of growth.

We built this race on three objectives: to create a great experience for riders, the communities and the corporate sponsors. The cities that we visited this year are very pleased with the positive effect that the race had on their communities. Not only have our 2006 host cities asked us back, but new cities have also inundated us with requests to come to their areas next year. -Bob Colarossi

One of biggest challenges we had in putting the race together wasn't where to go, it was where not to go. The good news is the route will change every year. There are plenty of other opportunities for other cities down the road.
