History

TAI Cycling was started by Bill Warburton and Spencer Newell in Bend, OR, as a local shop team in 2003. We have since grown into a regional team with riders in Bend and Portland. Our goal for the team is to attract good people who also happen to be good cyclists. We want to promote cycling as an integral part of life for people in our communities throughout Oregon. We have mandatory volunteer hours for our riders which are spent helping with community events, bike races and other charity benefits.
