Matt Cole

Matt's motto is Dream Big, Dream Fast. 




Lee Redfern

Picture
If you’re looking to ride alongside your biggest fan, Lee’s your guy. From pushing you to be your best every day to showing you his favorite roads in the region, you’ll wrap up each day thankful to have him along. In addition, he’s a master mechanic with 43 years under his belt and can fix anything, even things from which MacGuyver would run. Allowing you to just enjoy the ride, not a care in the world. He may have a slight masochistic side, seemingly finding the steepest roads on a weekly basis to train on and annoying his training partners for that very same reason.
He enjoys the finer things in life: narrow balcony roads, chocolate eclairs, huge cheeseburgers and long, beautiful climbs. Oh, and Rhubard Custard Torq gels…

Mike Palmeri
