"Decisions, thousands of them, decide the outcome of bike races. There are the customary decisions like choosing your equipment, what kind of nutrition with which you fuel yourself etc. Then there are more obscure decisions, like when you take a sip of water, when you eat a gel, when you relax and float to the back of the peloton or when you use some energy to move up."

Kelly Williamson Wins US Pro Championship

"As I neared the finish (just past mile 11), Derick yelled to me "Kel you got this...enjoy the finish" but even then, I told myself nothing was secured until I hit mile 12...and really until I saw that finish line.
