speaking of being proud ….

.
clairewins.jpg Hellyer Junior Rider Claire Jensen has become a US National Champion on the track.
.
way to go, you hammer.
.
Claire would take control of the Scratch Race with 2 laps to go and then razor the field to the line for a win the hard way. Word is Claire sported the pro-look by going TeamTesstarossa arm-warmers with her USChamp jersey podium.
hell yeah.
.
Not to mention … the Dylinger

This is one of my favorite riders at Hellyer ~ he’s all heart and brimstone … one of those young wilds that can fire off the legs like ammunition was unlimited.
.
Cyclingnews has him listed as the winner of the Scratch event at Natz … but, i found this awesome pic of what is looking like the sprint finish between Dylan and some monster-truck twelve-yeardylinger.jpg old.
.
hopefully word will swing up this way on the narrative of how that shook down.
.
beautiful stuff.

this is why i wish the Olympics well and long-life.
… and freedom from corporate greed.

hey-hey, and congrats to Larsen and Finneran for their big pursuit rides, taking it 1,3.

    So. This must be a pic from one of the heats. BC Dylan DID win. He took a flyer with 1 lap to go and left everyone of those guys gasping for air. He really did make it look easy. WHAT A STUD!!! AN Awesome rider to watch in years to come as he burns up the boards down south at ADT.

    awesome job dylan! you rock!!!!

    Claire,Dylan and Bryan are 3 of the reasons I support the track.

    The picture of Claire says it all.The other girls were tucked in tight right behind each other.Claire’s wheel was THE wheel.She is a champion in every aspect.

    I can’t tell you how fun it was racing out there with Dylan this summer.Nobody could match his leg speed and he always made it a point to tell us what a good time he had with us.Yea Dylan,it’s always fun to tromp on grown ups isn’t it.

    I have known Bryan since he was knee high to a grasshopper and to see him all grown up in stars and sripes
    gives me goose bumps.I’ll never forget his first day at Hellyer several years ago.He was just a blur.Harvey could see a gold medal pursuiter and the two worked very hard for the next few years.Stuff dreams are made of.

    Right on junior Hellyerites!
