McNulty storms to USA national title victory

Flying American comfortably takes title

Brandon McNulty put on a big display at the US national time trial championships in Oak Ridge with the Phoenix native putting in a strong ride to win by 1’32” on the 34.9km course.

 

McNulty clocked a time of 40:39 with an average pace ok 50kmph, earning the 24 year old his opportunity to pull on the stars on stripes.

 

McNulty: “I’m super happy to take the win here. Since I knew that I was doing the Giro it has been on my mind to come back and put in a good ride at nationals and target it. I was really happy that I came out of the Giro with good legs and could take the title.”

 

Elsewhere there were medals for the Emirati squad with both Mikkel Bjerg (Denmark) and Sjoerd Bax (Netherlands) picking up bronze medals to add to the gold medal won by Tadej Pogačar (Slovenia).
