Kahala LaGrange to debut at Valley of the Sun

Scottsdale based Kahala Corporation, a franchising and marketing company, has partnered with Los Angeles based cycling club Velo Club LaGrange to create a new team, Kahala LaGrange. On its roster are former professional racers Victor Ayala and Ryan Lane as well as Mexican National champion, Marco Rios. The club, which won numerous State Championships last season, will compete mostly in California, but also nationally and internationally.

The team will make its debut next weekend in Phoenix, Arizona at the Valley of the Sun stage race from February 18-20. Starting with an individual time trial, the race will proceed to a long road race on the 19th and ultimately finish with a downtown circuit race near the State Capitol building.
