Victory in Washington

The Veloforma team continues to win - this time in Washington. Hilary won both road races associated with the Tour of Walla Walla this weekend. She won the Friday road race out of a break of six that put nearly five minutes on the field. That stage did not count toward the stage race classification (too bad, because she gave up too much time in the Saturday morning TT to fight for the overall win). On Saturday afernoon she won the road stage from a large group in an uphill finish. She's looking forward to Mt. Hood in just a few more weeks!

Stage one was VERY VERY windy by the Looks of the Average speed for both Pro Men and Women.

The other impressive thing about Hilary's victories is she did it free lance. No team present to help her out. It will be a different case @ Mt. Hood. :) (input by Mark)
We actually have 3 ladies that will be able to ride high in the GC at Mt. Hood!!!
