Hincapie not in Amstel Gold? No Postal for Sea Otter?

Richard Adams

Looks like Postal has their climbers in the race: Azevedo, Beltran,
Rubiera. It's a hilly race, but still I'd think this would play to
George's abilities well.<p>
I suppose he's going to be at the Tour de PeachState.

Also, don't see any confirmed Postal riders for Sea Otter. Damon Kluck
lives just up the road in Santa Cruz, I wonder why he and a couple
others aren't on the slate. Any ideas?

I checked out the venue this noon (Roland Green had a decent lead, up
to 44 seconds, by my watch in the MTB XC, but looked to get caught
later) and no sign of any USPS people, though I did see Kristin
Armstrong and a couple of her teammates.

Agreed, he should do much better than those three. But one has to set
priorities; Georgie will probably want to do LBL as well, and doing ALL
the classics, and the Tour, and Worlds, and the Olympics; it's just not
of this day and age anymore.

Unless your name is Paolo?

Randy Walton

Friend of a friend ran into him here two days ago. Supposedly checking out
the descent on Hogpen and the Climb on Brasstown.

He didn't start Raris Roubaix.
