The ride marked a huge comeback for David who had only competed in two races since his back injury during stage 2 of the Giro d’Italia before today’s ride.
From a CyclingNews.com report on the race: “I didn’t care what the conditions were going to be like, what the course was, I came to win!” Zabriskie told Cyclingnews after the race. “Coming back from injury this is really just my third race back,” he said. “Cycling is full of ups and downs and my career has been up and down. I’ve had numerous injuries so I have to say thanks to all the people who stand behind me and keep believing in me.”
Team Garmin-Chipotle H3O dominated the event by finishing with four riders in the top 5. Christian Vande Velde rounded out the podium

What a showing! And it’s nice to see Zabriskie back in form.
SWEET RIDE DZ!!!!
Great to see the Armada grabbed the 5 top spots. Excellent work Boys!
What an exciting and warm TT at US Pros. Congrats to the entire team. It was great to see Tim Duggan back and even better to see Dave Z on form and back in red, white & blue for another year.
Great ride by the entire team today! Argyle dominated this race. And, excellent result by the defending champ! Way to go Dave!
Congrats to Garmin and DZ!
CONGRATS to all the guys, and way to go DZ!!
What happend with Danny Pate. DNF in a ITT ? Did Danny crash or did he got lost in his way to the finish?
Congrats DZ… we were pulling for you to win! You definitely deserve it and over the years have proved you deserve it.
You look a bit drunk in that winner’s photo
maybe it’s just the contentment of being back in top form. Best of luck to you from here on out.
Unlucky Moustache…
Great showing by DZ and the others. I’d like to thank Jonathan Vaughters for taking the time to talk with us and have a picture taken with my wife.
Great result by all the team. However, the best result of the day has to be Timmy back in the fold and racing again. Wonderful!
Way to go guys!!! Congrats to everyone!!! Especially DZ, welcome back. I would have loved to have seen Danny in there somewhere!
Welcome Back DZ! Great Job!
Way to go Dave! Congratulations to our US ITT CHAMPION for the 4th time!
