Team Unity

// June 2nd, 2009 // Uncategorized

Heading in to Tulsa Tough 3 days of fast criterium racing I had a small bit of doubt that I would even be able to hold on to the pace let alone sprint.  As far as my team was concerned we were going to win and win big we did.  Over the last few months I have been able to see my Jelly Belly team evolve in to a well oil machine that is quite confident of each part of its system.  Starting on the first night til the last day Jelly Belly was able to ride as if we had planned every follow, attack, and counter attack.  The first night I look up with 13 laps to go with my team amassed on the front of the field preparing to set up there chosen sprinter of the day, ME.  Although I was still attempting to find my blown legs from a late race breakaway back in 80th position.  Seeing my team at the front for me was a quick slap in the face to wake up and get your ass up there NOW!  Long weekend story shortened, Jelly Belly rode so well that I my confidence grew and grew each day.  Even if I was in the hurt locker several times throughout the weekend.  Thank you to my amazing teammates and staff that enabled its Jelly Belly Sprinter to take 2 out of 3 stages and the overall victory for Tulsa Tough!  I pray that this is only the beginning for the sugar coated boys?
