US Cycling Teams sponsorship

[Stephen Niece]

My memory is a little fuzzy on this one, can anyone tell me what year the US Cycling team was
sponsored by Skittles? I'm thinking early 90's, but can't seem to find anything to confirm that.

Thanks, Stephen

1991

For some reason 1991 sticks in my head as the main year for the Skittles sponsorship, but it would
be unlikely to have been a one year deal.

It was short though, 2 or 3 years at most.

I remember Armstrong and Hincapie riding the 1992 Tour DuPont with the Skittles jersey
