EDITED to clear up my ramblings:

I agree about training on the road and that these competitions are within reach. But, I think this guy is aiming for Elite Nationals where he might race specialists.

With regard to Joseph's time of 1:16, I was talking about Master's Nationals. A 1:15 (which is faster than me) would have not got anyone a podium spot at Master's Nationals this year. Well, maybe 30-34 which had only 4 competitors. His 1:07 from the road would have been fastest of ALL age groups at Masters and probably a national record if he'd done that on the track.

Congrats on doing well at Elites. What events?

By the way, I was told that only Cat 2 and above are allowed on the Home Depot track. I guess not.
