"We feel deep remorse for the victims of yesterday's events, and for their families," said William S. Aichele, resident and CEO of Univest Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: UVSP). "We feel it is inappropriate at this time to hold

"The Univest Grand Prix is the most prestigious amateur bicycle race in the United States," said John Eustice, race coordinator and owner of Sparta Cycling. "The Univest Grand Prix, with its international field, honors cooperation among nations. We are committed to preserving the spirit of this event."
