    Shouldn't this 'news' article have a disclaimer that it is a paid
    advertisment, and doesn't neccesarily indicate that they are really
    professionals.

    I do not care what your license says. You ain't pro, until you are paid
    a salary. Period.

    Probably a good regional amateur team, though.

    I looked at the mens roster list:

    According to this most of these guys are still (were?) Cat 2's!!!
    At least I can say that the large majority of our Elite team members are 1's

    What is the most significant differences, in your opinion between Cat 1, 2
    and 3 if you had to offer a range of abilities? Say speed, length of race,
    bike handling at speed...that kind of thing...

    In keeping with the management philosophy Ella Lawrence and CyclingNews
    should have paid Wenzel & Wenzel $4500 and considered it an investment
    in news publication.

    If some Freds want to pay $$$$ to get their "pro" license, who really
    gives a [censored]?

    Those guys are dorks, but so are the losers who care about the dorks.
