Allan Armstrong......

.....where are you man??? The racing world misses you.

What a great guy - completely nice, totally open to talking about cycling and training methods.....and just an all-around good guy. One of those guys who went from getting dropped as a Cat. 5.......to upgrading to Cat. 3 in a season. And he could put the hurt on ya too.....TT type.

And I really liked his method of training - averaging 67 miles and a couple thousand feet of climbing per day during the month of June or July, in preparation for Cal Cup. Yeah, that'd about do it. And it did......he ended up winning one of the road races on a solo break.

Hope he gets back out there again soon.
