More from Nationals!

Report from Nationals
Friday, June 25, 2010

Kendall Ryan got 2nd today in the Women 17-18 Criterium. Coryn Rivera won the race. Kendall is fired up for the Road Race tomorrow...

The Elite women (Lauren, Jenna and Julia) fought hard against the best racers in the country. Their crit never let up for a moment, it was the hardest criterium they've done all season in terms of the quality of the field. It was a tough day and they gave it their all.

For the U23 men's race, Danny Heeley was riding the front, attacking. Cory Geenberg had a couple hard attacks inside 10 laps to go, his moves shaped that part of the race. All our racers avoided a huge crash in the last lap. In the end it was a break that got away toward the end of the race and succeeded.

Sergio was our only racer in the Elite men race. He stuck with the game plan to race conservatively and save his energy for some big attacks at the end. Inside six laps to go, he had just attacked when some riders went down in front of him and Sergio had nowhere to go. Unfortunately it ended Sergio's race. He walked away, very bruised, but okay.
