Tri-State Velo

I discovered IronSport Gym (www.ironsport.com) back in 2003. I was looking for a serious place to strength train specifically addressing the muscles involved in cycling, and was trying to avoid joining one of those horrible chain gyms like Fitness Planet, etc.

Tri-State Velo’s history has been highlighted by its development of some of the country’s finest cyclists.  That list of young riders includes Nicole Rienhart, Gideon Massie, Kyle Wamsley, Lauren Franges, Sarah Uhl and Cindy and Andy Lakatosh, just to name a few.  In more recent years for one reason or another we have become more of a master’s team.   While that has been rewarding the

 Dear TSV Members:

I looks like the weather will finally give us a break in the coming days and, hopefully, weeks.

In February of this year, i came to understand why Lance Armstrong coined the phrase "it's  not about the bike."
February of this year was not about the bike.

This Sunday (9/13/09) the Tri-State Velo 55+ team gave our field at the Yuasa Criterium a good lesson in negative racing. This form of racing is not the first thing you think of when you envision a bicycle race. It is relatively slow. All breakaway attempts are brought back and the field is kept together for the final dash to the finish.

First; although I have decent fitness, I was a lot more fit earlier in the year, so that had little to do with the win.

The trick here is that before and during the race I was watching a number of conditions and riders very closely.  I also counted on my team mates to make quick and logical decisions during the race ... and they did, perfectly.  

Mad respect is what I have for my homeland's mountains and valleys.
Well, mostly the respect was earned by it's incredibly steep
mountains, specifically the mountains of the small 'pueblo' of Cayey,
Puerto Rico.

JBN Criterium, Bethlehem, PA - July 12, 2009

Dateline Sutton, Quebec, Canada, 6/27/09 - Despite three rain-soaked, back pain ridden stages and a very tough field here at the Coupe des Ameriques Stage Race, I am pleased with the results, so far.
