Kirk Edgerton here, WA Pro Staffer out in California. Just wanted to pass along a little success and testimonial on the WA line; Three years ago I was a dedicated mountain bike cross country racer with aspirations to turn semi-pro, but as I was midway thru the biggest and one of the toughest races in the country, i went thru a bad period, pulling out of the race and quiting cycling all together. After selling a few bikes and going thru a severe cycling burn out (2 years), I decided at the end of last year, to give mountain biking another try and see if I could regain the fitness and competitive level I was once at.
This was just after I was introduced to WA, so I figured the ultimate test of the products would be to use them exclusively as my fuel source for the 2008 race season, well, I'm pleased to say that by using the Performance Bars prerace and by taking the Energy Gels and Hydrate & Recover mix during and post race, I was able to regain my fitness level and surpass the performance I had a few years ago, which at age 34, isn't an easy accomplishment. I just completed a 13 week, 12 race series and finished 2nd overall in the competition which included over 500 racers. I also qualified for the National Mountain Bike Championships at the same race that lead me to quit cycling 3 years ago, finishing a strong 7th in my class.
Thanks again for including me on the Prostaff and for making products that work!
Here's a few pictures from my race season.
Regards and best of luck this upcoming season,
