Around SBN: Indy 500: 'Greatest Spectacle In Racing' Set For Sunday

Mike Creed to Kelly Benefits for one year in 2011


Mike Creed at Mt Hood Classic in June 2010.

 

Seldom seen this year in the North American Peloton, was Mike Creed.  There is news.  Mike has signed with Jonas Carney's Kelly Benefit formation for one year.  The stars may have finally aligned for the 29 year old Creed, who only logged 20 days of racing this season.  Carney had tried to sign Creed in years passed but the circumstances were not right.  Perhaps with Carney and Kelly Benefits, Creed will find the elements that have been missing for the past few seasons.

Cool.

I’ve been pulling for him since that day on Fillmore Hill in the San Francisco Gran Prix. Watched the whole race through the viewfinder on my camera, except the moment he got off his bike and held it up over his head.

Classic Creed....

Outspoken? A bit of a wild child as younger racer? Well yes. Talented, I can say yes, having seen him race at Mt Hood solo this spring and hold his own against the UHC juggernaut. I’ve been a fan for a long time, and his willingness to speak his mind is one of the reasons. Check him on the twit @Michael_Creed. He’s also done guest spots on http://nyvelocity.com/

Anyone who has every thought a working Photojournalist has a glam job needs to rethink...

He stopped by the Competitive Cyclist booth at Interbike

They’re getting a podcast together, and tweeted that,“Michael Creed is such a tweet celeb that the paparazzi are taking notice. Our interview- outta control.”

Glad to hear found a team

I didn’t want his career to end after the last couple of shit years he has had.

Thank you for returning to my life cross season!
