Blue Team to Race at Portsmouth Crit

Pitney & Herrera

 

Yellow, red and orange usually dominate the Fall color palette, but expect to see blue enter the mix as cycling's road racing calender enters the tail end of its New England season. Up next for the Downeast Racing squad is the Portmouth Crit this Sunday in downtown Portsmouth, NH where we have entries in both the 40+ (10:45am) and the P-1-2-3 (12:00 noon) fields. One DER team member showing outstanding form is Ta Herrera as evidenced by his savaging of ALL Strava segments in the Maine mid-coast area. Frankly, the locals are fed up with his whirling dervishness and Ta's retreat back into academia, for them, cannot come soon enough. But fellow New England racers are eager to challenge Mr. Herrera as an oft asked question at the recent Green Mountain Stage Race was, "Is that Guillermo guy racing at Portsmouth?". Yes. "What do you call him? Todd??"  No, it's "Ta" - the derivation of which remains a mystery but his racing talent is no secret. Blue-mates currently slated to join Ta are Peter Cole, Jeff Dixon, Hank Pfeifle and Troy Barry. See you in Portsmouth!
