Simon McAleenan completed a great ride which was part of his major goal of the season: Etape du Tour, on July 7th in France.

Simon did an awesome job; it was a 130K ride through the mountains with 2 major climbs. Simon who by his own statement when we started said that he wasn’t “a cyclist” but after his event I say he is. The event started with 14,000+ people and since he never did this before and had not results he was staged in about 11,000 PLACE AND BY THE EVENTS END WAS NEAR 3,500 and finished in 6 ½ Hours. This was some major climbing and he really did do an awesome job.

He is taking a reduction now for a few weeks with cycling training he is still riding just transition do to the fact he is doing a 14K swim in the river Thames August 11th. He will do great there too. Once that is completed we are setting new goals for on the bike.

Awesome work, Simon!!!!
