USA Pro Cycling Challenge Recap

Last week, the TrainingPeaks team spent their days following the USA Pro Cycling Challenge across Colorado, through some of the most beautiful parts of the state.  This was the first year for the USAPCC and we're excited to have partnered with the event to bring a world-class cycling race to our home state.  In addition to being its inagural year, the USAPCC is the only race in American cycling history to have the entire TdF podium present and racing.

To say it was a memorable and exciting week is an understatement.  We had a great time meeting lots of our current customers who came out to watch the race and had lots of opportunities to talk to new faces about what TrainingPeaks is and how it can work for them.  We handed out thousands of cowbells, bottles of sunscreen, sunglasses, stickers, t-shirts, and other prizes.  If you had a chance to stop by and say Hi, thank you!  If we missed you, hopefully we'll get a chance to get together in the future.

And as usual, we were collecting and analyzing power files from top riders each and every day.  If you missed any of the data (or some of our funny video blogs), here's a recap of the week.

Chris Sorensen’s (Team Saxo Bank) World RR Championship SRM File!

Wow what a race! If you didn’t get a chance to watch the World Road Championships held this past Sunday in Melbourne, Australia you missed a great race won by Norway’s Thor Hushovd.

TrainingPeaks was well represented in all of the races with top athletes from many countries.  One professional athlete that has allowed us to promote quite a lot of his race files in the past is Team Saxo Bank’s Chris Anker Sorensen of Denmark. You may have seen Chris’s power files from this year’s Tour de France.

When TrainingPeaks asked Chris if he wouldn’t mind sharing his World’s Road Race file he didn’t hesitate to say “no problem with me” and he went on to be about as vocal in his description of the race as well. In fact, “Good Legs”, is all Chris had to say as he sent us his file.
