Match up of the weekend

Less a match up but I wanted to highlight Tomas Rodriguez and how he’s an uber-runner who we could hear a lot more about if he makes improvements on his bike. Here are his races vs Matt Hanson who is easily one of the best runners we’ve ever had.

That's it for today, now finish your oats and get back to training!
