After a successful 2006 season with Alliance Environmental, two-time Olympian Jame Carney has agreed to return for the 2007 season. The team is reloading with some new riders and several returning powerhouses and looks forward to a good season.

"We are really excited about the team this year," said Bill Short, a member of the team since 2002. "We all have a ton of confidence in Jame and it paid off this past season. He has really helped bring this team together."

Jame Carney won both the Lancaster Classic and the Reading Classic in the Pro/Am race with a blistering six lap lead-out train. "Without a word, we had all our riders on the front with six laps to go," recalled Carney of the Lancaster Classic. "It was like we had been practicing this lead out together for years. I look forward to great things for 2007."

While Carney is racing the Tasmanian Carnival's, the rest of the team will be competing in the Tour of Belize February 10-18 in preparation for the rest of the season.

New signings for the team include former pro John DeLong (Rite Aid Pro Cycling Team), Boyd Johnson (Manulife Financial), Chris Ruhl (Sakkonet), and Chris Ernst (Hearn's Cycling & Fitness). The team has also added four U23 riders: Jeff Salvitti, Dave Brown, Evan Daney, and Tim Gresh, and one female up and coming rider, Dana Cumo.

The team will be ride the Bianchi 928 Carbon SL bikes with Shimano Dura-Ace and will wear clothing from Hincapie Sportswear.
