Congrats to Momentum athlete Chloe Forsman who won the Top Amateur rider competition at the Nature Valley Grand Prix June 16-20. Forsman won the jersey in the opening Time Trial stage and maintained her lead during each of the following stage following. Forsman placed 27th overall and was consistently racing near the front of the field.
Congrats to Scott Mullins (GearGrinder) on his 3rd place in the 40+ Masters category Wisconsin state road race championship. After 45 miles of racing, the race came down to a close finish amongst the leaders. Scott was excited with the great performance and will be extra motivated for future sprint finishes.
Perry Roper, 2009 Red to Red Champion, was recently interviewed in anticipation of the 2010 version that’s scheduled for March 6th. Want more details about how a 45+ racer beat the local pros? Read the full interview here. Best of luck to Perry as he gets set to kick off his 2010 season!
It was a busy weekend for Momentum athletes in Arizona. Saturday, January 30th held both the UA Criterium and also the White Tanks MBAA race.
Chloe Forsman won both the women’s Collegiate criterium and also the women’s Pro/1/2 race. This event was 100% organized and operated by the UA Cycling Club who did a fantastic job with the event. It was great to see a large turnout and sunny skies for this road season opener.
Ron Jensen won the Cat 1 XC event at the White Tanks MBAA race. Early in the first lap he was able to solidify a gap and continued to improve on it throughout the race. By the finish line he had established a healthy margin of victory.
Though the season is still very early it’s nice to see that riders are performing well and doing a good job with establishing their foundations for the season ahead. I’m excited to follow their progress, especially once the bigger races draw nearer and the training becomes more specific.
