The two day, three-part Tour of the Bahamas 2010 race that took place on Jan.22nd thru the 24th featured a Circuit race and a 3 mile time trial on Saturday, and a Road race on Sunday. The event also marked the season-opener for several American teams including the Garmin's U23 Development Team. Someone who also was there was Floyd Landis, who won the time trial. He broke the record that his pal Dave Zabriske set two years ago on the exact same course. It was quite amazing. His exact words were:"I was on somebody else's bike with clinchers and no aero clothes." Fast and angry Floyd is back. Give the man a Radio Shack jersey,a free Trek race bike and point him at Alberto Contador 
The big story, though, was a great win by me, Tommy Dudzik racing with EBCC in the juniors 12-14 category. I was third after the first circuit race with just three-fifths of a second behind the leader. But, strong time trial win five hours later gave me an over ten second advantage and the first place overall. Entering the final stage on Sunday I was in great position to win the race. So I just stayed on the wheels of the riders, let the other guys do the work and avoid trouble. I ended up third in that road race stage and that was enough to keep me in first place overall.
It was a great vacation and break from winter :)
Also, thank you for letting us borrow the bike boxes!
Here are few picks from the race:

| Nice job! I saw the photos online from that article, and was wondering who that was in the EBCC jersey. |
