Weekend Results

It was a busy weekend of racing for the CCNS/Pedal Power Team.

On Saturday...Bob German and Kevin Malloy raced the Tour of the Hilltowns up in Mass. Both guys rode strong and finished with the pack in their respective races. Congrats to Kevin, this was his 1st race ever, and a 57 miler is a heck of a way to start!

Calvin Smythe raced the Mystic Velo Criterium in Rhode Island on Saturday. Calvin took home a 4th in the Cat. 4 race earing him a little prize money and Top 5 honors. Congrats!

On Sunday...the team was in full force at the Keith Berger Memorial Criterium at Founder's Plaza in East Hartford. The highlight of the day was Robert Schmidt taking home the win in the Cat. 3 race; he also took 4th in the Juniors race. Congrats to Rob!

Bob German was an animal and raced the Cat. 3, Juniors, and Pro 1,2,3 races; that's 75 miles of racing! (not to mention he raced the 57 mile Tour of the Hilltowns on Saturday). Bob's best finish of the day was 3rd in the Juniors race. I'm sure Bob will be feeling it today!

Kevin Malloy rode well on his 2nd day of racing ever. Kevin finished with the pack in the Cat. 5 race and held his own in the Juniors race. Not bad after a grueling 57 miler at the Tour of the Hilltowns Saturday!

Robert Smythe, Calvin Smythe, and Anthony Vecca all rode strong in the Cat. 4 race. Calvin had the best finish of the trio placing 18th and taking a $20 cash prime mid-way through the race. Best of luck to Calvin as he end's his 2007 East Coast racing season with the team and heads back to school in Chicago. Great riding this Spring/Summer!
