Ron Hudson - the next Tom Danielson?
Rod Kingston
Hudson
"but…enigmatic ex-Mercury director John Wordin was heard earlier this
season touting Ron as "the next Tom Danielson."
"At a standstill for 30 seconds behind a wreck at the bottom of the
climb, he rocketed from 70 riders back finish 1:13 behind the
leaders—actually climbing the hill faster than Vaughters and Horner!"
Who the hell is this guy? He looks like he is 35 years old. And what
the fuck are the above two quotes doing in print?
I think this dude wrote this article about himself and sent it to
Dailypeloton under an anonymous name.
Seriously, who is he?

After spending an hour or more in a chase group with him at Solano
this is what I know. He is super skinny, tan as hell, not smart, real
strong, and probably a lame teammate (if you are thinking Chris
Walker, so was I). He spent the whole chase trying to ride away from
the chase group and his two teammates it contained. Every time I
looked up he was out front by himself, not looking back, fucking up
the rotation, and riding like a retard. I think our chase group chased
him down like 10 times. I couldn't believe that his teammates didn't
stick him in a ditch. The funniest part was when going into a 30 mph
cross headwind he pull really hard to the wrong side. I follow (me
retarded) and with the help of another teammate takes us off the group
of 15. This leaves me with him and his two teammates trying to get
back to the chase group (oh bike racing sucks). But then instead of
the four of us working to quickly get back on he attacks by himself
leaving me with his two teammates. That causes us to spend 5 minutes
chasing him, while he chases the 10 or so guys in front of us, while
they ride away. Brilliant. I was in hell.

PS the reason I knew his name was because I couldn't believe someone
could ride like such a douch, so I checked the results that night to
see who he was.

I've heard some stories. email me at the adelphia.net account if you're
actually interested in the strangeness.
Sometimes there are some wackos in cycling.

yes, Walker is skinny, strong, and chasing melanoma. But for 15 years
I've been hearing guys say he is not smart and he is a bad teammate.
Mostly from guys he beats every week. I've raced with him and against
him, and he might not be the next incarnation of Einstein or anything,
but he is a smart bike racer. And you don't hear too many complaints
from teammates sharing his prize splits either.
