Quoted message said:what on earth are they doing racing with the
cat 1 'amateurs' and not the 'big boys' ?>??>>>>???
jonathan page raced (placed 4th on the last stage)
with the pros at altoona the previous day and is the
current national cross champion???
and
joe papp has raced internationally (see cyclingnews
diaries..!) winning stages at the tour of cuba, etc.
so, why did they not race the national calendar
event?
JP had to race the AM event cause he is officially off CCC Hoop Polsat
since he quit after they did not pay him.
I have a race report from him I have yet to post to the website
www.thejonathanpage.com
Anyway, he said he is doing the 125k crit thing, he has been riding in
some races for Colavita, others for Toby Stantons Hot Tubes team, and
others yet for the Wheelworks/Frutta whatever team.
Funny thing is he is taking the summer easy to focus on cross and is
racing only as part of his training regime to get sharp for cross. He
took most of the spring off, so he is alot fresher then alot of guys
who have been racing all year, but he is still pretty psyched as he is
alot stronger this year then last year even.
Cross should be fun this season
