Mike Fraysse is very well known in American bike racing circles. Mike`s father & grandfather were both bike racers and were on US Olympic Teams and coached. His grandfather was 5-times president of the ABLofA. Mike was six times New Jersey state champion, and placed 3rd two times at the USA National Track Championships. He placed in every major open race on the east coast during his racing career. He and his father owned a retail bicycle store in New Jersey; they imported Paris-Sport brand bikes. I`ve known Mike for many years; I respect him and consider him one of the `good guys` in the bike industry.

     As founder of America’s Cycling Team (ACT) program and Mike Fraysse Sports, LLC., Mike Fraysse can lay claim to the title of Most Successful Cycling Coach and Manger in the United States. Under his tutelage, ACT riders have won over 650 events and generated millions of media impressions for their sponsors. To date, ACT’s race wins include 38 National Championships, 5 Pan American Games gold medals, 15 World Championship medals and 1 Women’s Tour de France.
     In addition to his coaching success, Fraysse has a strong background in the administrative aspects of elite cycling. He served as President of the United States Cycling Federation twice, from 1979-1981 and from 1994-1998 and was a member of the USCF’s Board of Directors from 1969-1994. Furthermore, he consulted for the Los Angeles Olympic Organizing Committee during their preparations for the 1984 Games, and managed both the 1984 and 1976 U.S. Olympic Cycling Teams.
     Since 1994, Fraysse has operated Mike Fraysse’s Sports, LLC., based in New York’s Catskill Mountains. His clients include not just America’s top riders, but also elite athletes from many Latin American and Caribbean nations.
