Spike hit by theft

By Greg Johnson

United States National Cyclo-cross Champion Katie Compton only enjoyed a short celebration after taking victory in the Boulder Cyclo-cross event in Colorado on Sunday, as her bike and Cane Creek carbon wheels were stolen that night.

The theft is a blow to the Spike Professional Cycling team, who said after her victory: "Next weekend’s races will be a great test for me, having Lynn Bessette and Katrina Nash here. I’m gearing towards the Portland USGP and Nationals."

Compton's fiancé and fellow Spike rider Mark Legg also had his bike stolen in the theft
