Duggan: Liquigas-Cannondale need to be aggressive at Utah

US professional road champion Timmy Duggan took his stars-and-stripes jersey on a day-long breakaway on Wednesday during stage 3 of the Larry H. Miller Tour of Utah, and for a brief time he was the virtual second-place rider in the overall competition behind fellow escapee Johan Tschopp of BMC. Duggan's escape didn't pay off with a win or a change in GC, but he said he'll be trying again and again throughout the rest of the week.

Growing up in Missoula, Montana, Pat competed in his first bike race in 1985 at Flathead Lake. He studied English and journalism at the University of Oregon and has covered North American cycling extensively since 2009, as well as racing and teams in Europe and South America. Pat currently lives in the US outside of Portland, Oregon, with his imaginary dog Rusty.
