Kermit Kollins adjusts Time Trial Position in Wind Tunnel Testing

Dynamic young kiwi athlete Kermit Kollins travelled to Kannapolis North Carolina this past weekend to adjust her time Trial position in preparation for next July's Cascade Classic in Bend Oregon. Kollins, the current NZ U23 champion, has steadily risen to prominence in recent times, with several top placings in the USA and Australia. However, Time Trialling is a discipline where she is most open to improvement.
"I like riding its mean" said Kollins in a recent interview with Lyne Lamaroux from Podiuminsight. "I also like shopping and playing dressups and i also like movie marathons of True Blood"
In recent footage obtained by Cyclingnews, the adjustments to Kollins position can be seen in the following exclusive images:

Vanderkitten-FOCUS Technical Director Jono Coulter, probably one of the greatest names in modern cycling, believes the adjusted position will reap rewards. "Kermit has a lot of potential as a bike rider. She is very focused on her goals and if we can tone down her loudmouth behaviour and rebellious attitude i think we have a gem on our hands. Plus we just adore her cheeky smile, lanky arms, webbed feet and green frill. Whats not to love?"
