America’s top cycling team, Motorola, signed Bobby for 1995. He finally got his chance to race as a pro in Europe, but he had to pay his dues, and spent most of the season working as a helper for the established stars of the team. At the Thrift Drug Classic in Pittsburg, Bobby was the perfect team player as he marked the competition on the steep Mt. Washington climb while his Motorola teammates Andrea Peron, Lance Armstrong, and George Hincapie took the top three places. Bobby finished 9th. At the end of the season he made the trip down under to race in the Australia Commonwealth Bank Classic, where he finished third overall.
