An excerpt from the 2000 Shenandoah Mountain Touring 24 Hours of Snowshoe team profile: Jeremy Wimpey, the protégé Hugh Jass adopted this babbling teenager when no one else would have him. They disciplined him in the way of the wheel and fostered his exuberance and youthful drive to create one of the most promising riders in the region. In his first Hugh Jass appearance, the worm decimated the field in Moab to set a scorching lap and a team record that still stands. Keeping this young rider focused will be a full time job and look for the High Priest and his entourage to guide this young man to freedom.
Jeremy is what I call the talent pool- cause he has got all the potential!!! He captained and road the SMT team to victory in the 2000 24 Hours of Snowshoe Men's Expert division. At the 2001 Snowshoe event Jeremy got called up from the minors to ride on the Coed Pro Trek/ Volkswagen team. He had a great race and the team placed 2nd Overall!!!
