Weekend Results: March 21st &22nd

Bethel # 3

Team CCNS made its largest showing yet for the Bethel series today, with team members Aidan Charles, Chris Kohnle, David Hoyle, Patrick Brandon, and Ron Larose making it out to the race.

A stiff wind on the course made the race a little tougher than usual, and after a quite a few break away attempts, Team CCNS was able to put Aidan, Dave, and Ron in a break of 10 riders with about 10 laps to go. As Patrick and Chris held the field behind at bay… Aidan Charles attacked the break with 3 laps to go in order to draw out some of the break's main competitors, including Eneas from Team Targettraining. With Eneas and the rest of the breakaway members chasing, Ron and Dave were able to pounce on the tired riders in the final lap, and take 1st and 2nd in the finish! Ron also managed to take a prime, adding a great final touch to a successful and exciting day.

Plainville #3

After last week’s great performance, David Hoyle earned himself the overall leader’s jersey. Team CCNS had to play a defensive role for the race, with the goal being to make sure that no one in contention for the overall was able to get up the road and away from Dave. The team set out to keep a steady pace on the front, and not let any threatening break get to far ahead without proper representation.

With members of the team being on the front for the large majority of the race, CCNS was able to control the race, even with the good deal of challenges laid down by the other teams, including CVC, Team IRSmedic.com, and Team Stage-One/Fusion think. Ron Larose was able to scoop up points primes, and David Hoyle was able to get second in the final sprint, with the help of a lead-out from the rest of the team.

The team now has a healthy gap in the overall team points competition, and is holding on to 1st, 3rd, and 4th in the in the individual points competition for the P123 ranks.
