1/2 way

3 down, 3 to go here at the Nature Valley Grand Prix. The team is riding most excellent and is helping me every step (pedal stroke?) of the way. We have a hella hard circuit coming up in Mankato tomorrow and I'm excited to see how I respond to the pressure and attacks that are headed my way. But first, we have to get thru the Minneapolis crit tonight! 75 min. of nail-biting, white-knuckled fun! I can't think of anything else I'd rather do...
Thanks for the support thus far!

Hope you can hear the cheers coming from the south! Did they ever find you a yellow jersey that fits? You'll have to come down to for a victory lap around the lake when you finish Sunday.

You must be disappointed in the GC result from NVGP, but I managed to be out for three stages of that race and I've never seen you and your team show such a commanding presence in a race before. I thought you guys handled that race really well, and it was tragic to see Rory get away by so little.

You guys rode a great team race, and you represented that jersey well. Great work, and I'm sure it came with no small amount of rough handling from the OUCH boys.

We had a great time watching you race this past weekend and were so impressed with you and your teams talent. We hope to get to at least one more race this year!
