Nature Valley Pro Rider Stephen Mull: Wide Open On A Wednesday
June 10, 2011Introducing Nature Valley Pro Ride coach selection Stephen Mull. He has earned his spot with grit and quick success on the road, as shown in his blog, Wide Open On A Wednesday.
The lead into his first entry is here, and he’s been keeping up on the path to the Nature Valley Grand Prix with successive posts:
Unfinished Business and Catharsis
I did my first road bike race last July. It was the ‘B’ race at Bryan Park–a Richmond institution and fantastic training race (also home to the State Crit this Sunday). Having developed a satisfactory level of fitness for the first time in 6 years, I thought I was going to win, but I finished 8th or so. Shortly thereafter I did my first real crit and road race in Blacksburg, placing 4th in the Cat 5 crit and 2nd in the road race. That’s how it began for me a little less than a year ago, and in less than two weeks I’m going to be racing in one of the most prestigious stage races in the US–the Nature Valley Grand Prix–through the Nature Valley Pro Ride!
