Daniel Holloway showed his urban cycling chops by winning the first and last stages of the Tour of Pennsylvania. Holloway’s dominance in the two crits—one in Philadelphia, the other in Pittsburgh—came as no surprise to those who know the 21-year-old. He’s the current national criterium champion, a terror in the velodrome and an avid speed skater.

From the start of the race it seemed clear that the man in the red, white and blue jersey was determined to win. Unfortunately, heavy rains and a tornado warning made the event promoters decide not to count the sixth and final stage in the overall standings, leaving Holloway far behind the overall tour winner, David Veilleux. Holloway’s team (VMG/Felt) did prove to be the best overall in the general classification, though. Click here for more race coverage.

Special thanks to Trek of Pittsburgh for providing us with a bird’s eye view of the race.
