Nick Martinez 2nd in Collegiate National Championship Criterium

Our very own Nick Martinez, racing for UCSB, placed second today in the
Collegiate National Championship Criterium. Anyone who has ever seen
Nick uncork a sprint will not be surprised. He narrowly missed the
jersey as a pro cyclocross racer came of his wheel to nab it. To put
Nick's accomplishment in perspective, his entire season has been
hindered by a nagging knee issue and so his training has been de
minimus. But he ditched the excuses, focused on short-duration intervals
and narrowly missed his major objective of the season. Good on ya, Nick!

We are very proud!
