-Tim Lim, 2010 Chicago Cyclocross Cup competitor
I picked up Cyclocross
with no bike handling experience of any type. I wanted to improve my bike
handing skills and also continue to stay in shape after the triathlon season.
Cyclocross (CX) ended up being a perfect solution. I am very fortunate and
grateful that I had Coach Ted help prepare me with a well thought out race
strategy to have successful races and an overall successful CX season
