All over the place...East Coast and Down South!

Checking out Westport, CT with the team.
Westport is right on the Ocean, Ah yeah!
We checked out the Target Training facilities in Westport (Guptill struggles with the 12lb ball)

Sorry for the lame updates lately! I wrote a blog the other day and then the internet went out. I hate it when that happens. I have been out East with the team for the past week. There are tons of people and lots of humidity and scorching temperatures. We races last weekend in Baltimore, Maryland at the Bike Jam crit. The course was in the same park that Cross nationals was held in four years ago. It looked like a great place to have a cross race. I felt pretty good for traveling for 14 hours the day before and only 5 hours of sleep. The next race we did was the Tour of Somerville Crit. I got into the break but there were 5 Navigators guys and 3 Collovita guys. They kept attacking me until I couldn't cover the attacks anymore. I was done after that, the temperatures got me and I cracked, straight out the back. Somewhere before I cracked I won a prime by accident. How you win a prime by accident, no idea??

Westport is a pretty cool town and it looks like I will be spending allot of time out here. I may even be out here until school starts again. Target Training is renting us a sweet house right in Westport. I guess it is one of the top 10 richest communities in the country. It is nice, but mostly old people live there (nothing against the elderly).

I am now in Richmond, Virginia getting ready to race the Cap Tech criterium. It looks like it is going to be one of the hardest races I have ever done. It is 2.5 hours of serious racing, 100 kilometers with a steep climb every lap. There is even a King of the Mountains (KOM) prize. We don't start racing until 7:30 and I guess the crit lasts almost 3 hours. It is going to be epic. I will be up all night I am sure so I will try to throw up a quick race report tonight, no guarantees though. The field looks to be super stacked and fast. I hope I have the legs. Thanks for stopping in again!
