Team headstrong will enter 2014 under 2 new teams, Greenville Velo (out of Greenville, SC) and Maddog83 (out of Tucson, Az).. It has been a great 4 years of racing, companionship, and community. We have accomplished some great things, but like all things, time moves on and so will we. See below for more details......

Day 5 - The TT

Analysis from the DS -

All the women faced fields much more competitive than last year.   All did their best in the face of puking and other issues.  Bikes performed well and organization was smooth.

Teenie - Rode hard but her time fell greatly behind known competitors.  I know she was disappointed but right now has amnesia.   She was 12th in a field of 12.  The winner in this field may have posted the best female time, overall?

Emily - Secured 9th but was only about 1 minute out of 3rd or 4th.  She is a real newbie to TT'ing and with experience, can play in this discipline at this level.

Linz - 4th in very fast field.   Linz has room to improve in this with equipment and better aero position?

We had very bold goals and fell short but that is the risk.  If you don't try to win, you never will.


Right now we are getting ready for the Crit tomorrow.   It will be Teenie and I.  She faces a star studded field of 22 and I will go out against 57 including 3 national and world champions.   I will be watching David LeDuc among others.

The Crit course is 1K with seven turns and we do 30 and 35 laps respectively.

We will report back.
