Phil Cortes sent out a note after Stage 3
Quick update...
I just finished stage 3 of the Vuelta a Costa Rica... I came here to get a training race in with a Canadian Composite team.
Today I broke away after 50k of racing and got caught 4 km from the finish.
Not a win, but I came away with the points jersey!! Here are a few pics!!
Hope you are all enjoying the holiday season.
Cheers
Phil
