Tour of Utah RideClean Guest Rider Wins U.S. Elite Time Trial Title!

Jonathan Chodroff, who will be guest riding with RideClean at the upcoming Tour of Utah has won the U.S. Elite Time Trial Championships! Congrats to the latest RideClean member!

Here is the Velonews (Aug 7th, 2008) story:

Elite Men
In the elite men's time trial, second-year racer, Jonathan Chodroff (CRCA-Empire Cycling Team) took the gold with a time of 44:14.80 seconds on the 33-kilometer course. Mike Olheiser (Memphis MotorWerks-Cervello) was second in 45:09.50 and Andy Jacques-Maynes (California Giant Berry Farms) turned in the third best time at 45:14.00

A former collegiate rower, Chodroff was 15th last year in the U23 men's event where he raced without any time trial gear. This year, he came in with not only the right gear, but good results, such as his win at the Fitchburg-Longsjo Classic. "I knew I always had the power and a big engine," he said. "It was just a matter of learning how to get in the right position to show that."
