The Hincapie Racing Team — known in 2014 as Hincapie Sportswear Development — announced its 2015 roster on Thursday.

Returning riders include, two-time U23 national criterium champion Ty Magner, Robin Carpenter, Oscar Clark, Joe Lewis, Joe Schmaltz, Dion Smith, Tom Skujins, Miguel Bryon, and Charlie Hough.

Hincapie will welcome new riders Jon Hornbeck, Rob Squire, Andzs Flaksis, and Mac Brennan. Darren Fuller and Chris Wherry are coming aboard as assistant directors in 2015.

The Hincapie Racing Team looks forward to 2015 after it saw success in 2014, winning 39 races, taking the general classification at Redlands Cycling Classic and Tour de Beauce, along with a stage win at the USA Pro Challenge.

“2014 was hugely successful for the Hincapie Racing team by any measure,” said chief sports director Thomas Craven. “But we have loftier goals in 2015 for a team that retains most of a core group that’s been together for two years now. Invitations to the Amgen Tour of California, Tour of Utah, and USA Pro Cycling Challenge are major points of emphasis for us. We’d also like to see a Hincapie Racing team member wear the leader’s jersey. And the national championship will be held right in our backyard in Greenville, S.C. this year. We’d certainly like to see some Hincapie jerseys competing there as well.”
