Egan 2026.26 - Not with a whimper
Egan 2026.25 Results:
Last week Katie won the Women’s GC, putting 30 seconds into her nearest competitor and notching 5 cups on the way there. Donald Hersam won on the Men’s side much more narrowly with only 8 seconds between himself and Matin and Adam tied in second.
Adam took advantage of the short segments to get 6 cups and join Katie as riders of the week.

Egan 2026.25 Announcement:
I was making this weeks route but Brandy and Katie complained that it was too short and didn’t have enough climbing so I tagged in a little trio of climbs to spice it up a little bit as we get to the end of the season. We probably only have one or two more Egans this season after today so make the most of it. Screw TS Eliot we go out with a bang.
