We'd like to thank Alchemy Bicycles and Rol Wheels for setting us up with these super light, insanely stiff, and extremely responsive crit machines. This recent Thursday was my first race on it at The Driveway Series here in Austin, and I sliced through the last chicane of riders to grab second place just inches behind Team Hotel San Jose's sprinter, Will Ross and in front of Jet Fuel's 2007 Canadian National Track Champion, Daniele DeFranceschi. I was not expecting to even finish the fast-paced crit due to all of my recent injuries, setbacks, and lack of training, much less get second. Check out the bike throw at the line here.
My boys, Drew Hill, Colton Jarisch, and Joseph LaFico played an awesome roll in chasing everything down and dragging the field to breakaways in order to keep the finish as a pack sprint. Colton even crashed, got back in, then drilled it towards the front to keep the pace high at the end.
Cheers to fast bikes with fast wheels on them and great teammates! This season is going to be a fun one!
