Trek Red Truck Racing Team is pleased to announce their 2018 roster. TRT's high performance program is focused on developing young cyclists on and off the bike.

Last season, TRT saw much success as a team and as individual riders. Highlights included:

? Erin Atwell representing Canada at the Junior World Championships in Norway.
? 6 team riders, representing their home provinces, participating in the Canada Summer Games.
? Alex Murison winning the Men's BC Provincial Road Champions.
? Disbursing over $6,000 of scholarships to team riders pursuing post-secondary education.

As some move on, there is a fantastic mix of young talent stepping into both the men's and women's team. New to the team are:

? Colin Fowlow, Erik Diertens, Chris MacLeod and Callie Swan who all live in Victoria.
? Isabella Bertold a former world class professional sailor making the jump to competitive cycling.

On the manager front, Evan Mundy moves on after three years and stepping into his shoes is veteran Brian Green. Former team rider Leah Guloien will be back again as the Women's team manager. Supporting both managers will be team mentors Clarke Lind and Anika Todd.
