USA Cycling announces automatic nominations for Junior World Championships

USA Cycling last week announced its automatic nominations for the UCI junior road and track world championships in Vienna , Austria August 7-14.

Three junior women received bids based on various performances.

Shannon Koch (Flower Mound, Texas), Kimberly Geist (Emmaus, Pa.) and Cindy Lakatosh (Trexlertown, Pa.), earned the women’s nominations

Koch captured two national titles last month, winning both the time trial and the road race at the Park City Cycling Festival to secure her spot on the road.

On the track, Geist earned a couple of national championships herself with victories in the individual pursuit and the scratch race last week, but it was her bronze medal performance in the individual pursuit at the 2004 junior world championships that gave her an automatic bid for this year’s event.

Discretionary nominations for the UCI junior world championships were planned for announcement on July 18.
