Organizers on Friday released the list of 21 teams slated to race the U.S. Open Cycling Championships April 7 in Virginia.

The 112-mile men’s race, a stop on the UCI Americas Tour (UCI 1.1) and the national USA Cycling Pro Tour, starts in Williamsburg and finishes in Richmond. A nine-lap women’s race in Richmond will use the western section of the men’s course.

Among the athletes bound for Virginia are Ivan Dominquez and Henk Vogels (Toyota-United); Svein Tuft (Symmetrics); Fausto Marcelino Muñoz (Tecos de la Universidad Autonoma de Guadalajara); and Danny Pate (Slipstream-Chipotle).

Dominguez got his 2007 season off to a fast start, winning stage 7 of the Amgen Tour of California. Tuft took the overall at February’s Tour of Cuba, and Muñoz won the 2006 Univest Grand Prix.
