Congrats to Roman Van Uden for netting the WIN at Tour of the Gila! A big win for the young rider from New Zealand. The first of many to come, no doubt. It's not everyday a young neo-pro gets to snag a win in a field with superstars such as Lance Armstrong and Levi Leiphiemer. A few weeks ago, we had the pleasur of assiting Roman with his bike fitting preparation. Typically with a rider already at al elite level, we expect the fot and position to be close before we see them. With Roman, we made some big changes and even requested a different frame size! Apparently, his new position is working well and the hard work he has put forth in training is paying off. Congrats to Roman and the Land Rover/ORBEA team for their first win of the year!
