TT1 team took its first overall stage race win this past week at the Tour of Arkansas. The team rode stellar and continued to gain momentum heading into Philly week.
I have always been impressed watching how a team rally around their man in yellow, riding on the front all day, shuttling food and bottles back and forth, day in and day out. Prior to this past week have never had the opportunity to be the one on the front protecting the team’s lead and often wondered what it would be like. Exhausting and fulfilling are the two words that best describe my past few days. We delivered Chaddy to where he needed to be each day and in turn he rewarded TT1 with a couple of stage wins and the overall victory.
I am on the way home now after what feels like forever. Big changes are on the horizon with #1 graduating a week from today, a move to the west coast, and hopefully a condo sale. Yes, I am happy to say that our tour in Ghetto Haven is almost over. Time has flown by here and we are ready to move back closer to our family. Congrats to #1 for graduating from an Ivy with honors (more on this later).
