Long time no see

Its been awhile since I last Wrote.  I have had a few results since then....Ill talk about my main results in the last few months.  one of my last good results of 08 was river gorge, I was feelin really good in this Pro1.2 RR, I was well positioned for the win in the cat 2s, I chased all the breaks and ended up 3rd in the 2s on the last climb....it was a good day.  I also got my VO2 tested again this winter and I hit the world record!!! 94!!, I was only able to sustain 90.5.  I continued to train through the winter weight training and WBLs.. it was a cold winter. 

A big result towards the end of the year was:
Georgia JR. STATE TT CHAMPION

2009:
My first race of 09 was Tundra TT, I did the Pro1.2  I got 2nd....Great start


My next race was Harbins Pro.1.2, I got in a break and held it for a majority of the race, I was caught in the last couple miles and had nothing left, I decided to call it a day... 

My third race of the season was Rome GA Crit, It was pouring rain and 40 degrees, I Was riding aggressively the whole race...I attacked into a corner and slid out across the road at 30 mph....ouch.  I got back into the race with quite a bit of Road rash....I finished 7th.  It was a good recovery.

Number 4 was Gainesville Omnium.  I was a domestiqe for the team in this one...I worked for the guys...Mid pack in the RR, 7th in the TT, and 7th in the circuit( field sprint).  We won the race overall and every stage.....Dominance

My next race was in Charleston SC for their PRO State Championship Crit...I was riding strong Throughout the race and was keeping it aggressive, I was around 5th wheel when I went into the last lap, I got swamped in the slightly downhill Sprint with my jr gears!!  i managed 14th out of about 90 starters...OK result

Athens twilight was the next 09 adventure for me...I raced the jrs.  I won this Crit in an uphill sprint from a breakaway.  First win of the year...it was a great feeling and a good one for my resume

The very next day I raced the Roswell Historic Crit in the 17-18 Jrs....I won this one too...Back to back wins  yea!!!   Things are looking up for the big stage races that are coming up...including

Tour De Atlanta
Tour Of Red River Gorge
Tour De L'abitibi
National Championships in Bend Oregon
Some local Pro1/2 Climbing races and a few state championships coming up......

More updates To come soon
