Emerson Oronte

He scored several big results, finishing 4th overall at the Joe Martin Stage Race and going on to win the Amateur Road Nationals later that year.

However, after winning the San Dimas Stage Race that year, finishing 8th overall at the Redlands Bicycle Classic, and finishing 6th on the Gila Monster stage at the Tour of the Gila, Oronte once again proved his mettle and earned a contract with Team SmartStop.

Team SmartStop folded at the end of the 2015 season, but Oronte got a contract with Rally Cycling.

At Rally, Oronte has proven himself a reliable domestique in the mountains, as well as a good all-round racer when he gets his own chances.

Oronte has shown consistency in many types of races all across the globe and continues to be a valuable asset to Rally Cycling.
