USA Cycling is pleased to announce and congratulate the winners of its 2011 election for the 30 open seats on its seven new sport committees. "I would like to welcome the newly-elected members of our sport committees and applaud them for taking the initiative to run for a position within USA Cycling's committee structure," said
Steve Johnson, CEO of USA Cycling.
"I truly appreciate the effort and passion displayed by all of the candidates who ran; and I look forward to working with the sport committees to help shape the future of bike racing in America." Earlier this year, USA Cycling's Board of Directors approved a revised organizational governance plan with the goal of ensuring the bylaws and operating principles of the company accurately reflect the current business models of the sport today and for the foreseeable future. The new governance structure is designed to clarify roles and responsibilities and eliminate ambiguity in the original documents created in 1995.
