Tour de Cure


The entire team rode the 100 mile TdC on Sunday, enjoying the perfect weather and promoting a great cause. The eight man train was out front, setting the pace for much of the day. The occasional comfort stop and mechanical malfunction slowed our progress, but we crossed the line intact and in good spirits. Everyone pitched in with the pulling, but Nick was the man of the day, sometimes leading for miles at a time. It was a great morning spent with teammates, something which doesn't happen often enough. 

Special thanks to Will Trafton and the Dorschel Automotive Group for helping make the event possible. Will was out there crushing the 100 mile course, along with many of his colleagues from DAG. We are looking forward to next year and doing it all over again.

OK, so we're slackers...

It's been a while since we updated our page and a lot has happened. Last season finished with a bang. Nick Leonard won the Highlander Cycle Tour Time Trial with an incredible time of 21:05.34. There's not many times better than that in the event's history! Then Dave Marsh went on to dominate the Cat 4 GVCC awards, winning the B4 overall, B4 Road, and B4 primes - a nice tri-fecta. Dorschel/Reed Eye had a great cyclocross season as well with Mike Bohn, Steve Goebel, Jerry Dunn, and Geoff Lawrence showing the jersey with pride. I was fortunate to finish my season with a win in a snowy version of the Apple Farm's Turkey Cross. 2014 is off to a good start with Dorschel having some strong showings in the Giro's. I was able to win the overall series with some strong team support. It was great to see D/RE continually attacking off the front. And now, the next road season is upon us - Battenkill this weekend! See you on the road... -Geoff
