Vanvurst 3rd, Derosa 5th at FSC Round #1 in Tallahassee, FL


The Goneriding.com Florida State Championship has begun, as the first round in Tallahasse, FL is complete. On Your Mark Performance Center was there to participate and witness the action. We were represented well.

Congrats to our podium finishers! Trek/VW Southeast Carolyn Vanvurst took 3rd in the Women's Expert class, and UBC's Greg Derosa secured a 5th spot in the Men's 30-39 Expert category.

Riding strong are the father/son combo of Ricky Knight and Jamie Knight. Jamie in his first year at the Senior Expert level showed good speed and finished 15th in a talent deep field. Ricky finished 12th in the Men's 40-49 Expert category. Also mixing it up was Matt "Knobby" Goforth, finishing 8th out of 31 in the Men's 30-39 Sport category, and Julie Barker 7th in Women's Expert.

We are also proud to announce our 2007 FSC points team:

Robert Bounds - Semi-Pro/Senior Expert, Shawn Smith - Men's 30-39 Expert, Tim Wisner - Men's 30-39 Expert, Matt Goforth - Men's 30-39 Sport, and Julie Barker - Women's Expert

We are off to a great start with a win from Shawn, a 3rd from Tim, Julie 7th, and Matt collecting 8th place points. Robert had a mechanical that forced him out of the race.

During the awards ceremony there was a moment of silence to honor Sean Livesay an avid cyclist and sport racer who was killed earlier this month. Sean's USA Cycling profile, and blog. Rest in peace.

Again, congratulations to our clients, and to our points team for a great opening weekend!
