About

RADIOSHACK-NISSAN-TREK, managed by Leopard S.A., is "a meeting of the minds," an improved version of the 2011 LEOPARD TREK team completed with the best of the 2011 Team RadioShack.

Bringing together two powerful entities of the top level gave birth to a new super team, capable of winning the broadest spectrum of races. Johan Bruyneel, the sport’s most successful team director with nine Tour de France victories, is managing a series of top riders, both European and American: Andy and Fränk Schleck, Fabian Cancellara, Chris Horner (2011 Amgen Tour of California winner), Andreas Klöden, Jakob Fuglsang and many more. The team also boasts two of the top young American talents in Ben King and Matthew Busche.

RADIOSHACK-NISSAN-TREK will take the start in California with great ambition, ready to defend the colors of the three American title sponsors.
