(Continue reading)AND JUST LIKE THAT it’s time for Week 6 of NYC racing and the Tour of the Battenkill. It’s the kid in me who wants to go do this race, the B-kill. It’s going to be painful and a shock to the system after just 60- and 90-minute city races. There’s lots of climbing and [...]
(Continue reading)You got 6th last year in the Cat. 2 race. What makes you want to come back again this year as a pro for the UCI race on the 18th? Battenkill is too epic to miss, and I enjoy racing in dirt and bad weather. This year will be longer and harder, but I’m coming [...]
