As my final year as a junior and
member of Team Specialized comes to an end, I wanted to take the opportunity to
thank everyone that is part of the team for all the support they have given me
the past two years. It was such an honor to be chosen for this program. I have
made so many great friends that I will stay in contact with for a very long
time. I have developed so much as a rider because of the expert advice we get
from Larry, Craig, Billy and all the other masters teammates.
I will miss all the fun team trips.
I have really great memories of team camps, San Dimas Stage Race, L’Abitibi,
and the Tour of Ireland. The first thing I remember about being a part of the
team is getting picked up in the team van at the Oakland Airport for our camp
at the Smith’s house. Getting in this van, that was all decked out in sponsor
logos, made me feel pretty special.
Thank you so much to all the
founders of Team Specialized Juniors for making this team possible. Thank you
to Larry for being such a positive influence on me and for all the guidance in
my cycling career. Thank you to all of the wonderful sponsors for backing up
this team. Being on this team for the
past two years has been one of the highlights of my life. I will be on a U-23
team next year and I look forward to seeing all the riders and their families
at the races.
