Seems kinda small...no word on what races yet?  Tours maybe?  Cool though.  I hear he's an animal on the bicycle himself.

The team is split into the 2 squads, the Elite one that travels nationally, and the Regional one that will do more localized events.

As far as the exact schedule Spies has lined out, I don't have any 100% confirmation. But the 2011 National Racing Calendar is pretty extensive. I bet you could come up with a pretty accurate schedule if you compared moto event dates to cycling event dates... just my hunch.

Mar. 30-Apr. 3: Redlands Bicycle Classic 2.2 Stage Race - M/W - Redlands, CA
Apr. 9: Sunny King Criterium1.3 Crit - M/W - Anniston, AL       
Apr. 16: Tour of the Battenkill1.HC M/1.4 W Road Race - M/W - Cambridge, NY
Apr. 27-May 1: SRAM Tour of the Gila2.1 M/2.2 W Stage Race - M/W - Silver City, NM     
Apr. 30-May 8: USA CRITS Speedweek2.5.2 Omnium - M/W - GA, SC

May. 14: Tour de Grove1.3 Crit - M/W - St. Louis, MO
May. 21-22: Wilmington Grand Prix 2.5.2 Omnium - M/W - Wilmington, DE         
May. 30: Tour of Somerville1.2 Crit – M - Somerville, NJ         
Jun. 2: Base Camp Intl. p/b Verizon Wireless1.3 Crit – M - Basking Ridge, NJ 
Jun. 5: Liberty Classic 1.HC - W - Philadelphia, PA 
Jun. 10-12: Tulsa Tough 2.5.1 Omnium – M - Tulsa, OK

Jun. 15-19: Nature Valley Grand Prix 2.1 Stage Race - M/W – Minneapolis/St. Paul, MN

Jul. 19-24: Cascade Classic Stage Race 2.2 Stage Race - M/W - Bend, OR         
July 27-31: Tour de Nez 2.4 Stage Race - M/W - Reno, NV

Sept. 2-5: Labor Day Omnium 2.5.2 Omnium - M/W – GA/SC 
Sept. 17: Univest Grand Prix 1.HC Road Race - M - Souderton, PA       
Oct. 2: CapCrit p/b WCSA 1.4 Crit - M/W - Washington, DC       

As for what I'm up to this year? Well, if you take every other race listed here, that pretty much sums up my season! 3 returning members form our 2008-2009 USA Crit Series winning team, 3 world ranked riders form Australia, and 3 new additions to the Vanderkitten team. Add in a newly signed 3 year deal with a prominent German manufacturer, and some huge PR & marketing deals, and the rock I've been hiding under seems to have gotten exponentially bigger! Haha!

One of these days I'll turn up at something MOB related! Really, I will!! laughingdp

A friend once told me that Bayliss is a monster cyclist. Like at a competitive level.
