Hey guys, Wanted to let everyone know I will be racing TransAlp this year with a good friend from the USA. It is a 600+km race with 20,000m of climbing race that takes place over 8 stages (July 19th-26th). I leave tomorrow for Germany and I'm hoping to provide daily updates to this website but I guess it depends on the internet connection. In case I can't update, the results should be posted daily at the following website:

The 2nd place guy from Hunagshan (Piers Touzel) is racing with another guy from Beijing on the Trek China Racing (TCR) team. Last year Piers was 45th overall. Will be interesting to see where I finish out but my main goal is to finish this monster... Hopefully I can send photos and updates. See you all in 3 weeks and ride safe!!!
