You saw Rogers Cup video right? Actually @mattm, you should come down and do it. Dec 2 or Dec 9th. I'll take video.
Geoffrey won USA U23RR, USA U23TT, did U23 worlds and made winning Rogers Cup his final goal after a few tries. That was his last thing before hanging it up.
The hill does make for a selection that business park circle races don't have. It's the only race/memorial ride I know where masters WC, World tour riders, junior champs and several USA present and past champs all race together - with some very elite women starting too.
Pretty cool hardware too with a bunch of nat champs, Olympians on it. Goes back to 1976.
