Jason Snovel, 35+ 4/5 Spring Hill RR

I think the "Strongest Rider" award would have to go to Steggall!
Being that this is still my 1st year with the team, I wasn't sure how
to react when JS suggested that I be "The One" which is why I never
responded. Yes I have been getting stronger, but I figure I've still
got a ways to go before I'm at JS's level...if ever and I figured I'd
chalk up my first year to "helping the team" so I was both surprised
and elated by his suggestion. I just hoped that I'd be able to
deliver.
Thanks to Janice, and her mom, it only took us about an hour or so to
get there. I was able to get in a pretty decent warm up but the first
time up the hill was seemingly the hardest. JS pretty much covered the
details of the race as a whole. He, Jim, and Will were all strong
throughout and Lee showed up right at the very end to offer what he had
left in the tank. I think my favorite part of the whole race was taking
JS's wheel as he ramped it up on the descent on the final lap. The man
is absolutely fearless! It felt solid riding off the front with he and
Will as well. Robin was cool enough to sacrifice his race and forgo the
final lap to make sure that he was there to feed the rest of the team.
Darin is getting stronger every time I ride with him and Todd, it was
good to meet you brutha! We may not have had the results that we were
hoping for, but we sure looked good doing it! :0) And I had and
absolute "Kick A$" time racing with you guys. Can't wait to do it
again...just do me a favor and remind me to drink more!
