Favorite race:
Norfolk Classic criterium: "I won the road race in a sprint finish the previous day, andif I won the crit, I would clinch the overall. It was my first crit, the day after my first road race, and I was nervous and over-eager from the start. In the end, it came down to a sprint again. Bryan Redemske pulled me through the last few laps and led me out for the sprint. I won by a length and took my first overall victory."
