July Update

Wow, where in the heck did June go?  Team VK finished up an excellent month of June with several successes. We raced 6 states across the USA in 23 days of racing, and scored 5 podiums (2nd Glencoe GP, 2nd, 2nd and 3rd Dairyland Stages, Bronze at U23 Criterium Nationals), 4 top 5s (at NVGP and Dairyland) and were in the top ten 19 of the days. We were also in prize jerseys for 6 of the 11 days of Dairylands and Sprint Jersey at Glencoe GP (IL).
It was quite the whirlwind but it was well worth the momentum the team has started.
July's focus is San Rafael on the 9th and Cascades Stage racing 19th-24th.
Many thanks go out to all of the fans who purchased jerseys and t-shirts at the races or online at http://www.vanderkitten.com/ as you may know proceeds from apparel sales fund the teams travel and race entries.  By the way, not of our podiums were in kit.  Here are Emily, Jazzy and me with Hairbangers Ball at the post race party at the Glencoe Criterium
More blogging to come and training and racing continues.  
Happy 4th
