Forest TT- 7/27/10

Bloomington is awesome! Where else in a little Midwestern town do you get over 40 riders out on a muggy evening to race 10 hard miles? Even better than that was that half the riders were female! First WWW and now the Forest Ladies TT!
However none of this could overshadow Ryan Shanahan who set a new course record with a fiery 20.38!! The seven-second beating of the old record can be chalked up to some great form and a few extra aero pieces! It’ll take a real special effort to beat that considering that only two guys have gone under 21.00 (Issac Neff being the other rider with 20.59). There is also a growing trend for TTTs with three difference teams tackling the course sharing the pain with a buddy! Kaleb Naegeli is leaving town next week so it was good to see him finally taking things seriously on a TT bike and setting a PR- his good nature will be missed around town. The mysterious ‘Raymond’ rode with toe-straps but set a remarkable 25.57 whilst Amy Dickman rode her inaugural TT and set a promising time. However the final word must as ever go to the Cutters. Kevin Depasse is a new recruit for 2011 and comes in rocking a 24.28 with no aero equipment…..you have been warned! Thanks to Kristen Metherd for timing on the busiest day we’ve seen out at MMSF.
