Yeager becomes first leader in women's race

Edition one of Pennsylvania’s Transylvania Epic was welcomed by clear skies and balmy weather with the temperatures pushing 80 degrees. What looked to be a short field has turned out to be stacked with talented riders from across the country. Both the men’s and women’s categories have heavy hitters from the endurance world. It seems that racers found the calling to a seven-day stage race in the continental US too tasty to pass on.

East coast power-house Jeremiah Bishop (Cannondale Factory Racing) scorched the ten mile prologue with a time of 35:33. More than a minute back was Drew Edsell (Yeti) in second and Christian Tanguy (Team CF) 45 seconds back. Fourth through sixth place, Alex Grant (Cannondale Factory Racing), Blake Harlan (Team Jamis), Brandon Draugelis (PAValley.com) are all within the same minute.

Tomorrow’s stage will travel 40 miles and looks to keep the good weather for another day.
