November 25, 2004 – Norco Performance Bikes, Canada’s top race and freeride supporter is excited to welcome Roddi Lega as the newest member of the Norco Factory Team.

Roddi has been a popular face on the XC & Cyclo-Cross circuit for many years now, and finished off an impressive 2004 season by capturing the Canada Cup XC Championship title. In addition to being this year’s champion, Roddi also captured the 2002 National Cyclo-Cross Championship title, as well as, being a member of the 2004 Canadian National Team for XC & Road. For the future, Roddi aspires to make the 2005 Worlds Team, and grab a spot on the 2008 Olympic Team.

In addition to an impressive riding resume, Roddi encapsulates the spirit of the Norco Factory Team. Everyone who knows or rides with him can’t help but praise his positive attitude towards life, laid-back sense of humour, and passion for the sport of cycling.

Norco is excited to support Roddi in his future career, where he plans to pose a serious threat on the Canadian XC circuit, make a splash in the NORBA series, and shake things up on the Cyclo-Cross course, as well as, at a few Cat 1 road events.

The Norco team is looking forward to an amazing 2005 season, with the team tech support and vehicles already scheduled to attend over 60 events. For more information about Norco’s Factory Team and team riders check out norco.com
