Frankie Andreu to direct the ZteaM at the Tour of Pennsylvania in June.
Former professional rider, team director and television commentator Frankie Andreu is directing the ZteaM under-25 racing team at June's Tour of Pennsylvania, a U25 event.
ZteaM is a national cycling club supporting the growth of masters, elite, and youth cycling through club riding and racing. The group is funded by national and regional sponsors, and its own members.
“ZteaM is all about building the cycling community through its support for youth and developmental cycling and has also built a strong sense of camaraderie for the members and the public,” Andreu said. “They have the right vision and model to build a successful program where young riders can benefit greatly.”
ZteaM founder Hunter Ziesing, said the team aspires to become a continental pro team in 2009 or 2010.
“Frankie is doing this more or less pro bono because he is very supportive of our entire developmental effort,” Ziesing said.
“We are honored and very appreciative that we have one of the most experienced riders in the world to lead us.”
