Start of the season
The first race of the season is right around the corner and I am more confident than ever in a solid performance at the Semi-pro/Pro level. The race takes place in Gainesville, Florida and is the first race of a series of nine in the South Eastern Regional Classics. The course is very unlike Florida. It has a lot of elevation change with some short climbs that will test everyone’s’ early fitness level.
I am coming into this race ready as I will ever be. I have spent the last 3 months preparing for the season with many hours on the bike including some long steady rides and a few team races. So far the New Year has been the best yet, and I look forward to expanding on that with some solid finishes in the upcoming races. I have gotten many new sponsors including Scott, SRAM, Dedicated Athlete, and Rudy Project. So far their products have impressed me. The Scott bikes are ultra-light and very stiff. The best bikes I have ridden so far. The true test will come in the upcoming races though.
I hope to see many of you at some of the SERC races. If I don’t see you there I am sure I will see you at some of the National caliber races in California, Arizona, and Vermont.
