CSC

The 2005 Pro Tour Team Champion, Team CSC is managed by former Tour de France winner Bjarne Riis and sponsored by California-based CSC (Computer Sciences Corporation). The 2005 spring season was the strongest ever for Team CSC, with a number of high profile wins by American Jens Voight (GER); in particular Juilch’s win in Paris-Nice. With his victory in Paris-Nice, Bobby Julich became the first ever rider to wear the UCI ProTour leaders jersey. American David Zabriskie won the Prologue of the 2005 Tour de France and became the third American ever to wear the Yellow Jersey (after Lemond and Armstrong). Julich, Voight and Zabriskie are all on CSC’s roster for the Amgen Tour of California and should all have an influence on the outcome of the inaugural race.
