Local Heros.... · 12 September 2006

So the season has pretty much wound down….and there are two names that stand out in my mind for 2006. Not only because they are local, but because they left a HUGE footprint on the National racing scene. They are Ben King and Andrea Dvorak. Both are now Charlottesville Racing Club alumni. Ben was picked up by Hot Tubes at the end of last year. Andrea was just picked up the Colavita women’s team last week. Both had breakout years.
Ben crushed all year. Numbers and placing say nothing of his ability. The result are too numerable to mention….Among them are 2nd in the Junior Tour of Ireland, 36th Junior World TT, 1st Walnut Creek Xterra and so on. Above all, he is a very nice, very unassuming guy. He needs to stop calling me Mr. McCarrick, it makes me feel old. Andrea kicked ass all year, and was always a factor in the BIG National caliber womens races. Colavita didn’t know what to do about her….so they they hired her. She should be racing in Europe next year!!! Well done!
