Messenger world championships go to the rookies in Guatemala
Craig Etheridge won a plane ticket to a messenger race in Guatemala. Then, he won that race.
Etheridge, a first time competitor at the Cycle Messenger World  Championships, was the first to complete a delivery course through the  tiny Guatemalan town of Panajachel.
Etheridge along with the top 40 male and top 10 female riders  competed on Sunday to deliver a set of five manifests consisting of  approximately 10 deliveries each.
Etheridge’s finished the course in two hours and 45 minutes,  according to Shawn “bega” Blumenfeld, the results coordinator for the  event.
“I just tried to ride smart, clean lines,” Etheridge said. “And on top of that, there’s always an element of luck.”
Read on here. Congrats to all, looking forward to Nationals in Atlanta and Chicago next year (cross fingers, hopefully).
