There was a familiar face missing from the opening round of the USA Cycling Pro XCT Series at Bonelli Park. Ryan Trebon, former National Cross-Country and Short-Track Champion, was not in the men's field and he is certainly too young to be thinking of retirement. It turns out that Ryan was still putting the finishing touches on his new ride for 2011 with Felt Bicycles. It appears that Ryan's first race on a Felt will be the Sea Otter unless he shows up at this weekend's Fontana National.

No longer MIA, the man who shows more seatpost than any other rider is moving from longtime sponsor Team Kona to Felt Bicycles.
