American cyclist Amber Neben, along with professional triathletes Rebekah Keat and Mike Vine, filed a lawsuit in a California district court last December against Hammer Nutrition, maker of Endurolytes.

The return of the backbone of the elite team (Brian Forbes, Jake Rubelt, and Kyle Colavito) is further strengthened by the addition of climbers David Glick and Jared Gilyard. This combination of promising talent along with young up and comers Jon Scholnick and Aaron Heun should prove hard to beat. The signing of World Cup Track Gold Medalist and American Olympian Jame Carney adds a fast finisher to this seasoned team and makes RideClean a podium threat in any race.
