Working on the weekends
Saturday, August 13, 2011 - Race Reports
Tough day at the Tour of Utah. Actually it was a pretty awesome day if you were a spectator. The big climb was a great place to watch, it was shaded and within the final kilometer. What more could you want?Anyway, the break went the first time over that climb. It was a bit surprising, I figured there'd be a few more fireworks. It was also 20 guys, I thought RadioShack would have wanted that shut down. But when I saw Peter Stetina attack after the feedzone, I followed him across.
The climb wore on everybody and I was having trouble the last couple of times. I caught back on, but then it goes up again. I finished 15th, about 28 seconds behind the winner. All that time was lost in less than a kilo.
Thanks for all the cheering out there. I heard my name quite a bit for not really knowing anyone in Utah. I also heard the live feed was really good. Tune in tomorrow to watch a stage that will feature at least a couple throw downs.

Tahoe training paying off? I would think so. Good placing sir. Hang tough or make it tough today.
