Who We Are
The Slimen ünd Grossen Cycling Club Presents
The 2006 Trek Bicycle Store of KC/LocalCycling.com Racing Team
Slimenundgrossen is a USCF registered club. The club name Slimen ünd
Grossen is a nonsensical phrase coined to playfully suggest the true nature
of cyclocross racing, along with its Belgian origins. That name was used
to promote an early Kansas City Cyclocross Series, and eventually was
adopted by the host company that promoted the 2000 USCF Cyclocross National
Championships in Overland Park, KS. The online registration and information
page for that event; www.slimenundgrossen.com, continued to grow and add
features, eventually morphing into www.localcycling.com in 2005.
The TrekbicyclestoreofKC/localcycing.com racing team is an outgrowth
of the partnership forged between The Trek Bicycle Store of Kansas City
and www.slimenundgrossen.com (now www.localcycling.com). In addition to
being one of Bicycling Magazine's Top 100 retail Stores, The Trek Bicycle
Store of Kansas City (Together with the Trek Bicycle Stores of St. Louis,
and Omaha, and their sister shop, Highgear of Omaha), lives up to it's
committment to "Support a Community in Motion." The members
of Team TrekBicycleStoreOfKC/LocalCycling.com believe wholeheartedly in
that goal, leading group rides, participating in bike rodeos, and serving
on community advisory boards as well as racing.
