| Platinum Performance Announces Stage Race Sponsorship Platinum Performance, Inc., a nutritional products company founded in 1996 in Los Olivos, Calif., has been named a top-level "King of the Mountain" sponsor of the Solvang Stage of the 2007 Amgen Tour of California. Solvang is one of several close-knit communities in the Santa Ynez Valley where Platinum Performance is headquartered. The Tour de France style cycling road race brings together 18 of the world's top professional cycling teams, including the Discovery Channel Pro Cycling Team, Team CSC, Predictor-Lotto and Health Net Pro Cycling Team, Toyota-United Pro Cycling Team, to compete along a demanding 650-mile course from San Francisco to Long Beach, Calif.

This year, as one of the most anticipated professional cycling events in the U.S., a national television partnership with VERSUS will bring daily race coverage to fans throughout the country. Over eight days, the race will visit 12 host cities for official stage starts and finishes, with communities along the route getting the chance to see firsthand a lineup of some of the best and most recognizable teams in the world. The Stage 5 Solvang Individual Time Trial will be held Friday, Feb. 23, 2007.
