Woodland Hills Cyclist Selected to Attend USCF Training Camp

John Wordin of Woodland Hills was selected Wednesday to attend the U. S. Cycling Federation training camp later this month in Fresno, the second step in qualifying for a berth on the U.S. national team.

Wordin, 25, who is currently in Colorado Springs, Colo., training for a possible berth on Team USA--for cyclists without corporate sponsors--was 1 of 3 selected from a group of 31 male cyclists at the camp. The Fresno camp, which will include cyclists with sponsorships and team affiliations, runs Feb. 13 through March 10.

Wordin, a distance cyclist who competes in the time trials and road-race events, will join John Tomac of Chatsworth at the USCF camp.

“This is the big camp,” said Wordin, 25. “It’s kind of a ‘Who’s Who’ camp. These will be the best riders in the country.”
