Once again, Teenie and the DS hosted a great event at their Tucson home, and we all thank them for their hospitality and making this possible...
The "Don" (Roger Kennedy) and the DS assembled their respective teams to position
themselves and their teams to be on the podium of this year’s El Tour
Tucson. The Don brought in 4 ringers
including 3 NYC pros and a Cat 3 diesel to power Team Foundation, whereas the
DS brought in 4 rouleurs and 3 top
women to 1) sweep the women’s, 2) win
the men’s overall and 3) do a 1,2 in the
Men’s 60+…. Ambitious goals to say the least….
The Strategy…..after
countless hours of discussions on and off the bike, the Bake mediated the final
strategy ……..Keep our noses clean… stay
in the lead pack and make the play in the final 4.5mile run in….
