San Diego, Ca. USA. January 2006. The New School is here! After much anticipation, Avent is proud to announce its 2006 USA Pro BMX Racing Team:

Tyler Brown Elite AA Pro - Tyler, a return rider for 2006, is geared up to make a title chase this year. This Orange County local has been putting a lot in this year, hiring a new trainer, participating in the UCI High Level Training program, traveling to a host of international races. One of the most professional riders out there, Tyler is going to be doing it big for Avent again. Tyler's schedule with over twenty races on four continents will push this racer to the limit, UCI, NBL, and ABA he'll have a PHD in racing. Tyler will be riding the Avent (r) Factor Pro XL in 2006. "We not only have a great product, but we also have a great team for '06. We are a group of hungry young riders ready to come up and make a name! With the support from Avent we can go no where but to the top!" stated Tyler.

Jarrett Kolich Elite AA Pro - One of the two newcomers to the team, Jarrett is locked on point for the Olympics. Already enrolled in a world class training facility in his hometown of Santa Barbara, Jarrett has his priorities straight. An NBL veteran, Jarrett looks to expand into the ABA and also attend his first of many international races to come next year while earning those ever-valuable UCI points. "I'm totally happy with the program at Avent; they're getting me to a lot of races which I haven't had the opportunity of for a couple years now." Jarrett will be riding the Avent Factor Pro XXL this next year.

Courtney Tomei Elite Girl Pro - Coutrney Tomei turned more than a few heads in the stands this year; she shook up the Pro Girls class. We were quick to sign this So-Cal girl up for the 2006 season once we saw what all the hype was about. Courtney has been known to give it all she's got, racing with broken fingers and all. Courtney is going to improve upon her ABA #11 this year and also pull for an NBL ranking. Look for Courtney to be tearin it up on her Avent MorpheusTM Pro XL. When asked about the new team, Team Manager Danny Meadows had this to say, "We have signed these up-and-coming riders to lucrative multi-year deals with the Olympics as our goal. I am real excited to have the people we have and am looking forward to working with them all."
