Yea, OK! alittle late than never, its not all our fault, as those that were asked to vote didn't get back to us in a timely manner, thanks to those that did ! and hopefully next year we can get more votes somehow, (we need to work on our email list!!) please understand these are NOT just the views of us at the controls at TMS, but of those SCENERS themselves. maybe your teammates, riding buddies, and who knows the dude dating your wives and girlfriends casted them. Instead of hittin everyone with one overall rider of the year we broke it down into some smaller segments. So in the next few days we gonna throw out a few a day. Sit back and enjoy, bitch, cry, agree or debate who deserved the nods. remember we always like comments anon or legit. thanks for your support!!!
1.Male roadie of the year. THIS was the ONLY one that came in tie, no lie. half the ballots went one way the others, well the other..so these dudes are sharin it.
Lathrups MINIME James Muerig, and WMCR Greg Christain.
MINI me held his game from spring fling to the end, and Greg started winning early in the spring, took on the Texas Roadhouse boys and later won the State Time trial as well. tough dudes.
2. Female roadie of the year Mackenzie Woodring rarely had any challengers she looked good weekend after weekend.
3. UP and Coming roadie. Matt Prygoski of Team Venom, won the the Cat 3 overall in May and didnt hesitate to butt heads with the 1/2 later that month, He's got a good attitude and strong sprint.
4.LIFER ROADIE BIG RAY DYBOWSKI, Rays a swell guy and picked up 2 more state titles in 07, He doesnt seem to be on some mega serious training program he just likes to ride and take chances, if they pay off, well he makes a bunch skinny guys look bad.
5.Miscner Sprint KING with no offense to any other of the guys that were in the field sprint mix every weekend, you cant deny 2006 Crit State Champion Ben Renkema of WMCR took so many fields sprints we lost count, he's young, rides smart and kicks like mule.
6. SPRING FLINGER Lathrups Josh Tarrant took no prisoners through the early months of the year and in April he killed everyone that came to runway plaza. Lets hope he can pick up were he left off last spring.
7. Male Cyclocross'er of the year. NO ONE scince the The Jeff Wienert days of late 90's has anyone laid it down like the long time deserving they often refer to as the REV, or we call him the WIZ, or the quiet one. Specailized Mike Wissink came out swingin with 2 bats and never let up, he rarely showed chink in his armor, won a Crank Bros Masters event, got a UCI point and Stopped the Former Juggernauts domonation of the Tailwind Series and State championsip stranglehold.
8. Female Crosser, FRCC Ann Schwartz, hit it every weekend and even made some guys look bad.
9. Up and coming Cyclocrosser Essex Brass Tim Sari, if he keeps rollin you may see him taking a state title in few years.
10.LIFETIME CROSSER Tailwinds Robert Linden A great series and Jonathon Paige coming to the UCI was HUGE. thanks!
thats all for now check back Wednesday for the FINAL 10.

Kudos to Greg Christian and Ben Renkema, who will both be riding for the Turin Elite Development Team out of Evanston, IL in 2008!
Josh Tarrant Rocks!

He probably would have done better the rest of season if the field didn't fan out so much going up climbs. The negative racing didn't help either.
I do not understand this road racing jargon. I will assume you are confirming my opinion that he is a fast and smart bike racer.
I agree, he is quick and experienced.
