So there is this “kid” everyone refers to as Scotty. You may have seen him working away at it is a whole different story. He has been tackling a race almost every weekend and is going at them full speed and determined. He is definitely an entirely different person when he is on a bike! Keep up the great work Scotty, and we cannot wait to see what the rest of your summer brings you!
This race was one of my biggest goals for the season, the state road race. Held
in Mount Pleasant this year. I raced the junior race. 10k into the race a small group of three made it up the road (myself being one of those). While trading turns with the small group and covering attacks, it was hard to conserve energy, the most important part of the race, who ever had conserved the most energy would win. So I tried my best to do so. 300 meters from the finish I launched my sprint, and I held. I won the state road race.
This was a Category 5 Criterium in the evening sun of downtown Zeeland.The thirty-minute race was high speed, and it was hard to keep a safe
position in the front for the whole race. With one lap to go, I got my self in a good position expecting most of the riders to burn up after their efforts on the front during the lap. But they stayed ahead of me and I made it across the finish line in sixth place. It was a very nicely ran race.
