A Book To Watch For

cyclist

I recently had a chance to look over a manuscript for an exciting new cycling book, tentatively titled: "Davy Crockett Goes to Flanders: America’s next generation of cycling stars hurting, hoping and hammering on the wild frontier of professional bike racing.”

Daniel Lee is an avid cyclist, bike-racing fan, and journalist who is finishing an engaging tale which gives a sneak peek at tomorrow’s Tour de France stars – hot prospects including Taylor Phinney, Daniel Holloway, Chris Butler, Benjamin King, Cole House, Ian Boswell and Lawson Craddock. The book also includes interviews with current pros Tyler Farrar and Garmin-Transitions teammate Svein Tuft of Canada as well as Jackson Stewart, Chad Beyer and John Murphy, young Americans on Team BMC.

Daniel will be working with another publisher but we will be watching for the book. It will give you an inside look at what it takes to make it as a pro cyclist. Based on what we've read, we think that if your a cyclist or cycling fan, you'll love it. Go Daniel. The le maillot jaune awaits.

2009 Tour of Battenkill

Scogtt Nydam of BMC Racing broke away 112 miles from the finish line and held on to win the pro men's Tour of the Battenkill Invitational. He rode about 60 miles solo and then held off a late move by Karl Menzies.

Here are two videos -- the first of the amateur race on Saturday and the second of Sunday's pro race.
