Update!

Becka wins Willamette!!!!!

Things just continue to be busy in the Veloforma house hold. So much has been going on to report. I am way behind on updates...sorry!
The development squad has been doing awesome and will soon be joining the elite ranks at there current rate of success. Laura McGraw (cat 4) Won P.O.C - making the statement. Wow- Guess I can sprint. Yeah she can… she can climb too. She’s going to be another tuff cookie on the squad. Jennifer Withers is currently doing the collegiate season. In her first criterium she went solo from the gun and that was the last they saw of her. She won by a huge margin and took all the primes!! These two ladies have big motors that will complement our current roster once they move up.
Speaking of our current roster, we are still looking for one more elite lady. If you can work in a team environment, be a team player and have the desire to race hard. Contact me mark@veloforma.com
Negotiations. We are in negotiations with another huge northwest talent, more to be disclosed soon. I have to say we are going to be fairly dominating this year in any race weather we come with 3 or a full squad.
Congratulations to Hilary and her success at Redlands! She is on her way to un-corking a big one on the NRC circuit this year.
Congratualtions to Becka, Miranda and Tina for an EXCELLENT Job at Willamette Valley Stage Race!! With just three women they dominated. The Veloforma women lead on GC from the Alpine Road Race stage and held it to the finish. I can’t express how proud I am of these ladies and how hard they worked. The Final GC was Becka 1St,Tina 7th and Miranda 13th. We took two spots on the podium at the tt (2nd,3rd) two spots on the podium at Alpine RR going 2,3 again. Again two spots in the Crit. 1,2. Final stage we took the win and WIN overall on GC!! Below is final GC http://app.obra.org/results/event/12993 and congratulations to all the women that raced!!
Veloforma women are sitting 1,2,3 on BAR Tina, Miranda and Becka. They are leading the Oregon cup - Tina 1st, Becka is sitting 5th. Oregon Cup is a priority for sure.
I have to say that I feel very lucky to have these ladies and all the Veloforma women on our team. They are truly a great bunch!
If I left out anything that has happened I am sorry. I will work harder on keeping things updated. I look forward to the fun we are going to have as a group this season!!!
Next stop is Kings Valley Road Race on Saturday and Icebreaker on Sunday. It’s Oregon Cup (Kings Valley) and we plan on racing hard and keeping the Oregon Cup lead. See you out there.
Cheers.
