Garmin-Transitions hit the town in NYC
Vaughters, Millar, Farrar head out in support of local development program
Garmin-Transitions's Jonathan Vaughters, David Millar and Tyler Farrar let their hair down on Thursday night in New York as they appeared as special guests at an event organised by NY Velocity to raise funds for the Century Road Club Association's (CRCA) junior development program.
Garmin manager Vaughters acted as master of ceremonies for proceedings at the 'Plaid Men Roller Party' in Manhattan. The evening saw the track replaced with rollers as local riders took part in a series of sprint events amid boisterous support.
The evening was organised to raise funds for the CRCA junior development program. The oldest cycle and racing club in the United States, the CRCA's junior program provides support for under-19 riders.

The British Olympic Association has a lifetime ban preventing any British athlete with doping offences from competing in the Olympic Games, which would stop David Millar competing in London next July. However, in November, the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) declared this non-compliant with it’s code, and that athletes should have the chance to compete. The BOA have appealed, and a final decision should be expected from the Court of Arbitration in Sport (CAS) in April. If the ban is lifted, Millar will want to contest the Olympic time trial, and be part of the British team looking for a road race win on home soil. If not, look out for him in the time trial stages of the biggest races, and hoping one of his opportunistic breakaways can bring him a win.
