Tour of Utah.....!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sooo.... The Tour of Utah was pretty good to me. Scored my first NRC win on the queen stage!

Best Young Rider's Jersey, King of the Mountains Jersey, 4th over all, and a stage win! Not too shabby!

Need Some Work On Your Cross Skills?

If you need some work on your 'cross skills and you live near Boulder check it out. It's run by the same guys that taught me everything I know about serious 'cross racing. Good guys and heeps of fun. I'd be there helping but it looks like I might be racing USPRO Championships that weekend... Cross your fingers.

Been Ridin' Bikes...

I've been riding bikes a lot. Hope to be ready for Utah and anything that may come up after. Not sure what my September will look like. Hopefully, I won't be on the couch...

Did I just win again??? I did! Damn, that one was cool!

Took off on lap 3 or 4. 56km in the break. Jumped away with a lap an a half to go. SOLO VICTORY! Excluding local junior races from back in the day I think this was my first solo win. Pretty rad.

HUGE THANKS to all the Felt/Holowesko/Garmin riders and staff. Couldn't have done it with out y'all! Lets go get some more gold at Utah boys!

Crit Nationals Today

We plan on finishing this week on a high note. Won the road race, won the TT, --- the crit.

Side note-

I joined twitter because I'm dumb. Come listen to the dumb things I tweet about @alex_howes.
