Danielson motivated to win USA Pro Cycling Challenge

Tom Danielson (Garmin-Cervelo) is motivated to compete on his home ground at the inaugural UCI 2.1 USA Pro Cycling Challenge held from August 22-28 in Colorado. The American is unsure of how his body will recover from a recent 9th place overall at his first Tour de France, but his head is in the game as one of the favourites to try and win the overall title.
