U.S. women attend track endurance camp

Several accomplished U.S. female cyclists who are better known for their accolades on the road will be attending an track endurance camp from January 23-29 in Carson, California. The camp, which will culminate with time trial competitions at the ADT Event Center velodrome, will prepare riders for the final opportunity to gain entry into USA Cycling's Track Talent Pool and thus be eligible for the World Championships in March.

Three-time U.S. National Time Trial Champion Kimberly Baldwin (nee Bruckner) (Boulder, Colo.), current national time trial champion and 2004 Olympian Christine Thorburn (Menlo Park, Calif.), two-time U.S. National Criterium Champions Tina Pic (Dahlonega, Ga.) and Laura Van Gilder (Pocono Pines, Pa.) and reigning national champion and 2004 U.S. Olympic Team member Kristin Armstrong (Boise, Idaho) are among the 12 athletes that are scheduled to attend.
