Albabici and Nalini are pleased to announce their sponsorship of Stefan Rothe of the Mercy Cycling Team.  Stefan is originally from Dresden, Germany but lives in Wichita Falls, TX while attending Midwestern State University as a graduate student in exercise physiology. 

Since Stefan started racing bikes more that 10 years ago he has won a variety of races, including five National Collegiate Championships podium appearances here in the US. The year 2005 was his most successful year so far with scoring UCI points, a few road race wins and more. After just winning his last race of the season in October, he's now already in preparation for 2006 where he plans to make another step in the pursuit to receive a professional contract for the 2007 season.
