	Athletes - Tom Danielson

Tom Danielson (born March 13, 1978 in East Lyme, Connecticut, USA) is considered one of the United States' best young cyclists. Some believe that he may be the next Lance Armstrong. Previously riding for the Saturn Team on the U.S. Pro Circuit, and for Fassa Bortolo in Europe, Tom is now a member of the Discovery Channel Pro Cycling Team.

Tom Danielson currently holds the record for the fastest ascent of Mt. Washington, NH in the Race to the Clouds competition. The previous record holder was another American cyclist, Tyler Hamilton.

After having a very uneventful stint on the Division 1 Italian team Fassa Bortolo and missing the early spring campaign due to Visa issues, Danielson is currently racing for the Discovery Channel team, where he has won the 2005 Tour of Georgia.
