This is Why We Sponsor a Team!

We don't sponsor a team with the idea of winning everything in sight. We sponsor a team because we've met some of the nicest, coolest people in the world as a result. Kerry Litka joined our Team Terry this year and has quickly become an invaluable member. Not only can she ride, she's a pillar of support on our Terry Forums and an endless source of ideas.
Kerry sent this to her teammates on the eve of a Vermont stage race:

Last year at this time I was racing at the Green Mountain Stage race. One of my memories from the race was watching Team Terry constantly attacking and being aggressive throughout the race. I was really impressed with everyone on the team.

After the Crit I watched the four of you stand together to get a team photograph. I stood off to the side and watched and wished that I could be part of such a great team. I was in awe of you ladies.

Now, here I am a year later, and I am getting ready to race once again at the Green Mountain Stage race...only this year, I GET TO REPRESENT THE PINK TEAM. Although I am sad that the season is almost over and that I won't get to see you all again for a while, I wanted to say how much fun this season was for me and how excited I am to attend this race as a member of Team Terry. It's unbelievable to me that a year ago I was dreaming about racing with you, and here I am today ACTUALLY DOING IT.

It really is a dream come true.
Thanks, Kerry! We're looking forward to riding with you again next season!
