Sponsorship information Goose Creek Cycle is currently involved with a number different cycling teams & clubs. Each is aimed at a different type and level of rider, and each has different benefits. Goose Creek Cycle Teams - We do have two in house teams. Our A-team is comprised of dedicated racers, and our Club team (or B-team) which is designed for avid cyclists who may or may not race, but enjoy riding and are active in their local cycling community. Club riders who start to focus on the racing aspect of the sport, are oftem moved to the Racing team as spots become available. If we accept you for individual sponsorship, you will be placed on one of these two teams Teams and Clubs we support Teams and clubs that are listed below are ones that we support, but do not manage. With some we have negotiated deals and jersey spots, others we simply provide some discounts to just to help out our local cycling community. If you are on one of these clubs or teams and are not sure how to take advantage of the benefits we provide, please contact us and we will fill you in.

Individual Riders- Applications are accepted on a continuous basis, and we accept riders from almost any event that involves a bike. Non-Cycling athletes (running, hand-cycling, wheel-chair, nordic) are encouraged to apply, and we can often get product that applys to your sport through our distributors,but we ask that you have a pretty clear idea of what types of products you would be looking for from us. To apply, you will need to send an e-mail to sponsorship@goosecreekcycles.com containing the information below. Word document attachments are acceptable. Racers - Resume with races from the last 2 years and aplicable highlights from before that. A little about yourself and what other aspects of cycling you are involved with. What are your goals for the upcomming season, and what races are you planning on attending. List all current sponsors and teams. What level of sponsorship are you looking for from us? Non-Racers - Tell us a little about yourself. How are you involved with the sport of cycling. What cycling events have you participated in in the past. What are your cycling goals and plans for the upcomming year? Once we have received your information we will review it and probably contact you with questions and some sort of sponsorship offer. If you do not hear from us is a week, please contact us and make sure we got your e-mail. Groups / Teams-If you are looking for sponsorship for a group of riders, select one person and have that person contact us. ( sponsorship@goosecreekcycles.com ) We will need to know the following: #1 Orginization of the Group: Typically we see one of three things here a. a group of riding buddies that all want to ride for the same team or want specific event sponsorship. b. A group of riders from a disbanded team. or c. an active team looking for additional sponsors. Whatever the case, let us know so we can decide if it is better to place your whole group on one of our current rosters, or treat you as an independant team. #2 List of riders and involvement levels/ Ranking - In almost every group there is a range of activity in the members. Some will ride every day and hit every race within a 200 mile radius, and some will show for a couple of races a year, maybe. Give us a rough idea for each rider what their catagory is and how many races they do a year, or if it is a touring club, how many club miles they log or events they attended. Then give some highlights of individual finishes. In otherwords, submitting an individual resume for each rider is not necessary, but give us a good summary, and if one of your members pulled down a 4th place at nationals or completeted a 600k brevet, we want to know about it. #3 Your plans for the upcomming season and how those plans can benefit us as a sponsor #4 What you are looking for in terms of sponsorship.
