Re: [mwcycling] Chadwick Dons Tour of Utah King Of The Mountain Jersey

Congrats on the jersey and I hope your guy holds onto it.
I've driven up that hill to Snowbird to ski and wondered about the pain of riding up it,
and at the end of a race with three other major climbs.

Chadwick Dons Tour of Utah King Of The Mountain Jersey

Salt Lake City — Team Type 1’s Glen Chadwick pulled on the Zions Bank King of the Mountains Jersey following Stage 2 of the Larry H. Miller Tour of Utah Thursday in Salt Lake City.
 
Chadwick won the second of three King of the Mountain sprints during the 85-mile (137 km) University Health Care Road Race that began in Ogden and finished in Salt Lake City. The New Zealand Olympian finished 12th on the stage that was won by Blake Caldwell (Garmin-Chipotle) ahead of Darren Lill (BMC Pro Cycling Team).
 
In addition to earning the polka-dot jersey, Chadwick moved into sixth place, 28 seconds behind Caldwell - who assumed the race lead from Garmin-Chipotle teammate and Stage 1 winner Jason Donald.
 
It was a remarkable performance considering less than a week ago, Chadwick was racing half a world away in Beijing.
 
"He was really good today," Team Type 1 Sport Director Ed Beamon said. "Chaddy looked to be one of the strongest guys in the front group and that bodes well for the rest of the week."
 
Chadwick said he rode the first climb as hard as he could, then saved some of his strength leading up to his attack on the second KOM that earned him enough points to take the jersey.
 
"It was a pretty tough course, but Saturday will be even harder," Chadwick said.
 
Friday's 90-minute criterium in Downtown Salt Lake City will serve as a rest day of sorts for the 102 remaining racers, who have endured more than 15,000 feet of climbing in the first two days.
 
Stage 4 on Saturday is expected to be the decisive one of the five-day, five-stage event that is billed as “America’s Toughest Stage Race.” The 98-mile (158 km) race features nearly 15,000 feet of climbing over four mountain passes, ending at the Snowbird Ski Resort.
