- That was a good weekend... -


When you get to work with top-level professional cyclists it's pretty cool for you as a small business owner. Sure, we like working with almost everyone - and people who have never raced a day in their life are some of our favorite clients - but there is something about seeing things that you contributed to winning or doing well on a world stage.

Not that I helped Katheryn Mattis do anything on the way to her vicotry in Geelong at the Women's World Cup opener this weekend, but it was the first world-class victory (probably first victory period) by a rider using our Hudz. It was a gutsy ride, and we'd just like to congratulate Katheryn and all the ladies at Webcor for showing what they can do down under. (More info on the race and some great pix at here.)

It was also nice to see CVV and David Millar putting in such good shows at the ToC this last week. I was sitting at the keyboard updating away the cyclingnews.com coverage of the ITT in Solvang and hoped that David would pull out the victory on the day and pass Levi in the race. Unfortunately that didn't happen, but it was great to see half of the top-6 in TT sporting argyle, and the same thing on Sunday's GC final. I am really starting to look forward to two great races in Paris this spring (Roubaix and P-Nice), and hopefully one in July.

More on the Slipstream squad to come...
