Rock Racing

Rock Racing by far had the nicest team tour bus at the Tour De Georgia this past week. I had a chance to grab a photo up on Brasstown Bald Saturday.

The color scheme and the Rock Music theme kick ass. The videos they ran on TV during the Sports South coverage were pretty cool too.
The Rock Racing cycling team was allowed in the Tour De Georgia at the last minute. One thing for sure, Rock Racing made their presence known both on the track and during the event.

Rock Racing Tour bus, fan gear truck, and awesome Cadilac Escalades everywhere. Everything was Black and Lime Green.

Good job on the marketing!
