Team rolls to a second place in Qatar TTT, Farrar in place

Director’s report from Johnny Weltz:

The team time trial was only 8.2 km and for sure we were very motivated as the course fit us well, and after some practice at our training camp we had a good order set. It was very windy so it made for a rocky ride. The boys all rode strong as a group until 2km when Cozza missed a few meters in a shift and got dropped — as did Danny and Kirk with a couple of km to go. Tyler took the last 700 meters by himself and clocked the best Time of the day, 10 second ahead of second place but shortly after Sky rolled in. The winner’s time ended up being eight seconds faster than us. But that times leaves Tyler in a very good position for tomorrow .
