The 10 continental teams are in addition to the three U.S.-based UCI ProTeams (BMC Racing Team, Garmin Sharp and Trek Factory Racing) and the two professional continental teams (UnitedHealthcare Professional Cycling Team and Team Novo Nordisk, formerly known as Team Type 1) previously announced by the UCI. This means that altogether, the United States is home to 15 professional men's cycling teams recognized by the UCI.
U.S.-based UCI continental teams for 2014 include: 5-Hour Energy Cycling Team, Airgas Cycling, Astellas Cycling Team, Bissell Cycling, Champion Systems Stan's No Tubes, Hincapie Sportswear Development Team, Jamis Hagens Berman, Jelly Belly presented by Maxxis, Optum p/b Kelly Benefit Strategies and SmartStop p/b Mountain Khakis.
The US also will enjoy an increase of two continental teams in 2014 as Airgas Cycling, Astellas Cycling Team and Champion Systems Stan's NoTubes join the ranks. The Bontrager Cycling Team merged with Bissell Cycling.
In addition, four U.S.-based women's teams are registered with the UCI for 2014: Optum p/b Kelly Benefit Strategies, Specialized-lululemon, Team TIBCO-To the Top and UnitedHealthcare Professional Cycling Team. The addition of the UnitedHealthcare Professional Cycling Team offsets the loss of Exergy TWENTY16 to maintain four U.S.-based women's teams in 2014.
16 Canadians are on both the men's and women's rosters below
