Egan 2025.06 - Top Performers
What a turnout we had this week for the tour of LAH and banquet! We had 102 riders with 699 PRs and, in an unexpected turn of events, it looks like the A group was even larger than the B group this week - we may need to keep tuning until we find balance. I’ll also go ahead and assume that the turnout was a vote for the route maker’s perennial favorite, Blandor, and not for the SOM pizza. Noting this down for the future!
A great time was had by the women’s group who were 13 strong with several riders completing their first of many Egans to come. Lots of laughs and only a few choice words for the route planner’s propensity to slip in “hills that don’t count”. Watch out B group, we’re coming for you! If anyone is interested in joining the women’s leadership team let us know. Stay tuned for the next women’s start in the coming weeks!
Rider of the day was Wil Gibb with all 10 PRs and 3 top 10s, also taking the top spot of the men’s GC! Top of the women’s GC was Rachel Hwang with 4 PRs, 2 top 10s, and 1 XOM!
Notable fact: Sue Lin arrived from LA at 4pm and jumped on her bike at 6pm to join Egan. That’s dedication! Welcome back Sue Lin!
Reminder: The Egan store is open once again until 04/22: 2025 Egan Store. Claude Luu was the first winner of a $100 Eliel / Egan store coupon as a small token of our appreciation. Claude has the highest Egan participation, always volunteers to help out the Egan community, and is an overall great guy - don’t forget to introduce yourself to him next time. There are 4 more coupons remaining so to participate, join AV and show up at the next Egan.

Note: If you’re wondering how to show up in the results, here’s how it works:
Upload your ride that evening (the results are tabulated early Wednesday mornings)
In your privacy controls, make sure that everyone can see your activities (if you’re worried about privacy, Strava has other settings such as restricting your profile page to followers and map start/end point visibility)
You have to complete all segments to show up in the GC
