excelcycle of Excelsior Minnesota Introduces Road Cycling Packages to Encourage More Riders to Get into the Sport

excelcycle has introduced complete road cycling starter packages to make it easy to jump into the sport. Four customizable packages are available.

Excelsior, MN (PRWEB) February 24, 2007 -- excelcycle (www.excelcycle.com) thinks road cycling is one of the best sports you can do to stay fit and stay active all year long. But, until now, getting involved with road cycling has been tough; it is not just as easy as picking up a new road bike.

That is about to change. excelcycle has introduced complete road cycling starter packages to make it easy to jump on.

Starting under $1850, the packages - specifically designed for aspiring road cyclists - have been assembled with all of the key items new riders need to get on and have fun right away. The packages include a top brand road bicycle, coordinated shoes and pedals, complete clothing set, protective sunglasses, and basic road repair kit.

Packages have been specifically designed to match the level of the rider. Each of the four available packages (Club, Team, National, and International) can be customized for an individual rider's preferences, including a professional fitting to ensure the ideal riding experience.

"Most people don't realize just how important the right fit is," remarked excelcycle founder Blayne Puklich. "The fit can make the difference between a great first experience and a challenging one."

And excelcycle wants more people in the mix.

"Road cyclists are an exclusive group - it's a lifestyle," Puklich said. "We know that when people get started, and see how much fun road cycling is, and how much better exercise they can get, they just love it. I want more people to experience that feeling. The feeling we have when we ride."

Research has shown excelcycle that road cycling tends to be a "couples" activity - with both men and women entering the sport, many older than 50 years old. excelcycle road cycling packages are the first to recognize specific riding needs and preferences of female riders and more mature riders.

"Only by specializing in and understanding road cycling can we tune packages to the riding style and ability of each rider - man, woman, young or old," Puklich said.
