Webcor’s Amber Neven 2nd in USA National Championships TT
6/29/2010Webcor’s Amber Neven rode Maxxis to second place at the time trial for the USA Cycling National Championships, held June 25 in Bend, Oregon.
Neven’s final time was just 38.6 seconds less than the first rider’s. Racing hard on her Radiale-23c tires, she overcame challenges including a semi-truck trailer which somehow entered the closed course and turned directly in front of her. “The race itself went well for me,” said Neven. “I do not think I could have asked for more, although I did want to win. I went out with a good strategy and was able to carry it out. I hit the first section that was uphill well, and then I tried to hang on coming back down. I did my best to keep my speed rolling and minimize my losses. I am happy that I am continuing to progress, and I am anxious to play in the road race.”
Maxxis congratulates Amber Neven on her fine performance and thanks her for choosing the brand of champions.
