Zirbel on the money in Elk Grove opener

Tom Zirbel (Bissell) won the richest time trial in America at the Tour of Elk Grove opener on Friday. Zirbel blasted over the seven-kilometre course in a time of 8:25 and taking away $4000, roughly $500 per minute of his time.

“I think it’s the exact same course but the US peloton is getting stronger and stronger,” said Zirbel, who beat his winning time last year by seven-seconds. “It was a good race for us. We put quite a few riders in the top 10. But even the sprinters who are 30 seconds back are still in the race.
