In the over 90 degrees Fahrenheit heat of Tennessee, a number of regional and state women residents assembled to contest the TN Road Race Championships.

Andrea Wilson, shares a brief race report by reporting that “Debbie got away from the field about half way through the first two road race laps. I was chasing with a couple of other girls who didn’t seem too concerned with catching Debbie Milne (ProBikeCycling) since she wasn’t from TN and did not pose a threat to the championship jersey. The race was up the road, so I threw in a little attack on a little hill and got away from them. The course was tough, with extreme heat; however, I managed to stay away for the remainder of the race although I never caught Debbie and I finished 2nd and achieved the championship jersey.”
