Race Results: May 10 - 16

Yesterday was the Sterling Road Race up in Mass. and CCNS/Pedal Power saw its second road race victory of the season. In Cat. 3 action, Ron LaRose beat out 96 other riders to take the win covering the 56 mile course in 2 hours and 15 minutes. Bob German rode well finishing 15th followed by Brian Tompkins in 36th. In the 48 mile Women's Pro 1,2 3 race Katie Douglas rode to a 12th place finish. In the Mens Pro 1,2,3 Chris Kohnle finished 30th. Dave Dubos finished 34th in his first road race of the season, the 40 mile Mens Cat. 4 race. John Bonadies finished 61st, with this also being his first road race of the season. Kevin Malloy rode to a 16th place finish in the Cat. 4/5 race of 50 riders. In Masters action, Steve Youmatz finished 12th and Jason Cicero 20th in the 35+ Cat. 4/5 race. In the Mens 35+ Open Race Patrick Brandon finished 26th.

On Sunday, Ron LaRose took 9th in the Cat. 3 race up at Bear Mountain, New York. I'm told there was a serious break away and the field was split for most of the race.

The Tuesday night crit series at Rentschler Field was full chock full of yellow and white. In the B race Keith Hurley, Steve Youmatz, and Jason Cicero rode strong with Jason taking 2nd and Steve 3rd. In the A race Bob German finished 3rd behind Team Director Aidan Charles who took the win for the NERAC Team he races for. Ron LaRose took 2 primes and everybody rode really strong! The downer of the night was Brian Tompkins going down along with 2 other riders in the first turn of the last lap. An ambulance was called, but for the most part everyone was alright. There are dozens of photos over on the Team's Flickr Photo page. Head over and check them out.
