Navigators to ride Tour of Britain

The US-based Navigators Insurance Professional Continental team will be among the peloton when this year's Tour of Britain rolls out of Glasgow on August 30, Tour of Britain organisers have announced.

The team intends to make its mark on the race, and manager Ed Beamon will be bringing a strong squad headlined by Irish rider Ciaran Power who has won two races in his home country this year. Power will be supported by a multinational line-up that includes experienced Italian Siro Camponogara and 25-year-old American rising star Shawn Milne, who won two stages in this year's Nature Valley GP.
