Jessi Prinner (ABD) appears to be the only local rider to have earned some new laundry over the past few weeks of national championships. The junior got 2nd in this weekend’s 15-16 time trial and 3rd in the road race. This comes on the heels of a 1st (scratch), 2nd (omnium) and 3rd (points) at the junior track nationals.
It was a small women’s U23 field, but Chicago had three representatives: Rebecca Much (Targetraining), Melanie Wong (Team Get a Grip Cycles) and Jennifer Greenberg (XXX Racing-AthletiCo). Much had the best weekend, getting 2nd in the time trial and 5th in the road race. Perhaps the beginning of a comeback for the one-time junior world silver medalist and former T-Mobile rider?
