This past weekend former Allied Decals Race Team member (see below) Jimmy MacDonald raced in the Elite Juniors Cyclocross US Nationals. Jimmy finished in 14th place, about 3 minutes behind the overall winner (not too bad for his first cross season). When you see him be sure to congratulate him on another fine performance.
For those of you who didn't know Jimmy (unfortunately) will not racing with us this upcoming season. Our mission statement holds true once again, we are a developmental racing squad and Jimmy has truly blossomed into a great rider that is full of potential. This year he will be racing as part of the A&F Elite Cycling Team. This is a move that will allow him to race at the nation's larger events and hopefully continue his quest for bigger and better things in cycling. Though he will be sorely missed we wish him well in his new team.
