I'm personally angry with this but the cyclists have had that name for
years.  I do think it's poor form (and shows a lack of imagination) to use a
taken name in the same area. I am not a member of this cyclists organization
but, I do think the entrepenuer gatherings should come up with a less
confusing name (Plus, it's the right thing to do).
