Frank Pipp Moves into King of the Mountain in Tour of Georgia

22 April 2008

TrainingPeaks user Frank Pipp of Team Health Net won today’s King of the Mountain sprint in the 2nd stage of the Tour of Georgia. Pipp is the first person to wear the King of the Mountains jersey in this year’s Tour of Georgia and it looks as if he’ll be able to defend it for a few days since there are no mountain points to be awarded the next few days. To view and download Frank Pipp’s race file please visit his coach, Frank Overton’s, FasCat web site here.

Pipps Teammate, and yet another TrainingPeaks user, Rory Sutherland helped Frank win the mountain sprint by “sweeping”, or blocking, other riders from catching Frank when he attacked on the short steep climb in Augusta, Georgia this afternoon.Today’s stage was 116 miles between Staesboto and Augusta and tomorrow is a 108 mile test between Washington and Gainesville, GA.To view all of last year’s power file archives from select USA Cycling team members, including Team High Road’s John Devine, click here.
