The team

I've decided to write a bit on some or maybe even all of the riders in Cycling Center.
So, I'm going to start with the two guys that made me at home, they were also my first roommates.
Aaron Pool aka. Wattage Cottage:
Aaron comes from Nebraska, USA. The guys round the house like to joke about Nebraska, but Aaron doesn't seem to care. He's a neat freak, everything has it's place in the room, which looks out of place among the clutter of a four man bedroom. He rides a silver Le Mond which has never had a speck of dust touch it, Aaron is out almost everyday, making sure his bike stays clean. It's a mystery to me how he keeps every single component shining silver. I come back from a ride and every Veloce component is black, constantly grinding the dirt between its walls, despite cleaning it all the time.
They don't call him the Wattage Cottage for nothing, he is a machine, however he does well because he keeps focused and never drifts away from the front of the race, resulting in some of the brilliant positions at the finish.
Aaron has taught me alot, from why Socrates makes more sense than Aristotle to washing my bike and what soap to use. He is staying a full season here and will definetely do well.
