US champions to ride Teleperformance's Tour of the Gila

Reigning USPRO road champion Chris Wherry and time trial champion Chris Baldwin will both line up at this year's 20th edition of Teleperformance's Tour of the Gila, New Mexico, USA, May 3-7.

Wherry and Baldwin are both members of the new Toyota - United Pro team and Wherry has twice been overall winner of the Tour of the Gila, the notoriously hilly event based around Silver City, New Mexico. The five-stage race culminates in the notorious Gila Monster road race that crosses the Continental Divide and takes in five categorized climbs. It's Baldwin's first out here, though his wife, Cyclingnews diarist Kimberly Baldwin, won the women's race in 2005.
