Five Valley Velo-A Cow Country Classic



Wow, it looks like the team did fantastic over at Wolf Creek this past weekend. Our Cat4/5 team has become quite the dominant force in the peloton this year and we are starting to build up a Cat1/2/3 field. It may not be like the "good old days" yet, but I can see it coming. Our team is getting stronger and the vibe is so positive right now. Great job guys (and gals).


Jeff Twohig and crew rode hard all day and posted SIX guys in the top ten, but the performance of the day has to go to our junior "pro" Mr. Willy Zellmer. Willy had a 40 mile breakaway with Jason Ames that only got caught in the last mile of the race. Willy hung on to 4th. Kyle took 2nd, Rob Gillespie 3rd, Jeff 5th and Travis 6th places overall. Lucca Scariano made it in the top 10. I guess the team put a hurt on the peloton and dropped just about everyone!


I'm now feeling bummed that I didn't make it, but had other commitments. John W. and Elliot represented in the 1/2/3's over the long course. Good job for hanging in there guys. Next up, Whitefish, for the State Championship Criterium. Can anyone say "Fast and Furious?"
Big Thanks to Natasha Westphal for the photos.
