The Chicago Bike Show -- the largest consumer bike show in the
country -- expects two members of the Toyota-United Pro Cycling Team
to be in attendance for the March 29-30 event. Team members Jose
Manuel "Chepe" Garcia and Ivan Stevic will be signing autographs and
meeting fans at the Toyota booth of the Chicago Bike Show in
Rosemont (near O'Hare Airport). Garcia is a two-time Mexican National Champion who won the national
road race championship in 1996 and the country's 4,000-meter
individual pursuit in 1997.
Stevic is a relatively new face in North America (having only been racing
in the circuit since 2005), But for the last three years, Stevic has been
destroying the competition and wowing throngs of fans across the
United States (17 top three finishes in 2007). After winning the UCI B
World Road Race Championships in Cape Town, Africa, Stevic won
an automatic berth to the 2008 Olympic Games.
In addition to meeting these two cycling giants, Chicago Bike Show
visitors will be able to purchase bikes on closeout sale, meet top
vendors and see extreme athletes perform live stunts.
