Tucson, AZ November 13, 2009: TriSports.com is excited to announce the addition of Tom Demerly to the management team. Demerly, longtime owner of Bikesport Michigan, is making the move to Tucson to join TriSports.com and head up the newly developed Bike Manager position. TriSports.com has long been the leader in triathlon retail and, with the recent partnership with local cycling club Eclipse Racing (now TriSports Cycling), is paving the way to becoming a leader in the road cycling market, as well. Demerly’s hiring was the result of a lengthy process during which TriSports.com interviewed many exceptional candidates from around the US for the position. Ultimately, Demerly’s expertise in both road and triathlon bicycles is what convinced TriSports.com that he was the best candidate to take the bike department to new heights. It is no coincidence that Demerly will be joining TriSports.com just as expansion plans begin, specifically enhancing the bike fit and service areas of the destination shop. “Tom Demerly will be a major asset to TriSports.com in both our online and retail bicycle sales and service, bringing with him over two decades of experience in triathlon and cycling retail,” says Seton Claggett, president and CEO of TriSports.com. “We have only truly begun to focus on bicycle sales over the last 12 months, and Tom will be the catalyst to take this division of our company to the next level,” adds Claggett. Demerly is ready to take on the challenge. “Joining the TriSports.com team is the most exciting opportunity I’ve had in the cycling industry. It is the launch pad for customer service goals that only the TriSports.com team can achieve. TriSports.com is dedicated to service and community, contributing to the sport on a local, national and international level. Being a part of that team is the best place in the multisport industry.”
