Our small local elite team has done really well so far this year and building up a lot of sponsor momentum through social media. We recently picked up a new sponsor for next year which is not on our kit, but is an animal adoption service. SEAVS, our title sponsor, stands for Stahl Exotic Animal Vet Service. Basically we help animals get adopted.
Also Joe Dombrowski's first team cuz you know that had everything to do with his massive success. If you have a moment please like our Facebook page. Just getting the likes we have has gotten us race invites, meager equipment donations, and great exposure for sponsors that have taken great care of us:

I do like seeing you guys all out on the road on the weekends, you look good all together

I like the bibs though!
BMX is like the NASCAR of cycling... lots of logos. But yes, he has a bunch of sponsors. Pretty amazing for a 10-year-old kid. But he is a good ambassador for his sport and his sponsors.... strong results and an even stronger personality. Sponsors love him.

Congrats. So tell me about all the road races he won on NCVC before he got signed? I should correct the original post by saying "First development team", but since its about a year old and you've added nothing constructive to the thread, why bother right?

I don't think those early races on NCVC are really relevant to him being signed as he was just starting out and 15 years old at the time. Yes, mentioning first developmental team would have been more accurate. I've seen a few riders with the new Haymarket kit on the road and it looks good
On the topic - a small group of us is in the process of designing our kit for our newly formed team. District Taco!

Nice, I didn't know DT was going to field a team! That's cool, the guy who owns it (not Osiris, he's not the true owner) actually rides, but doesn't race. He owns another company that I actually work with in my normal day job. Funny enough that company's first hire was my former teammate. Such a weird, small bike-related world in DC.

Yes, the idea came from Osiris! I've ridden with his from the start and he came a long way. The guy sure likes to sprint
We have several Cat4 guys and few, myself included, who will start racing this year. You sure you got the owner thing right? I wasn't aware of his partner riding. His brother does sometimes (black dogma)... Osiris rides a Tom Boonen Venge and DT was a joint venture with his neighbor. But yes DC is a very small bike related world!

Cell phone photo under less-than-ideal lighting doesn't capture the colour: it's like a very deep hot pink.
