My son is a Lees-McRae cycling recruit for 2011, and this really hits close to home, both from a cycling fan and mom-of-a-cyclist standpoint.
I feel really sad about this. I have watched Carla race locally for years and cheered her on at every opportunity. I didn't know her other than from those races, but by all accounts she was as fantastic a person as she was a cyclist.
Just tragic.
