Rider Specializations

Most cyclists have an area that they are specialists in. Their are the sprinters who charge towards the finish lines at incredible speeds for the last few meters to take the glory of victory. There are the climbers who dance over the hills making it look almost effortless at times. Then there is the rider who excels at the true test the individual time trial, fast and aero as they race against the clock to post the fastest time of the day.
