UNDER-23 CYCLING TEAM FOLLOWS ARMSTRONG'S PATH

Pouring rain and gusty winds gave the Trek-Livestrong under-23 cycling team a chance to sit down and talk about their weeklong training camp in Solvang. While wet weather drove the team inside, it did little to dampen their enthusiasm for Solvang. “There’s lot of passion about cycling in this town. This place is special because it has been the training destination of teams like U.S. Postal and Discovery. The best in the world train here. We are following in the footsteps of Lance (Armstrong),” said Glenn Kasin. “It’s cool to come to a town that is so excited about bike racing.”
Kasin was amazed at how nice the residents of the Santa Ynez Valley were. Kasin said during a bike ride with sponsors, a car pulled up next to him and thanked him for bringing the team to Solvang. MORE
