So for the first real weekend of cross in the new england area it was a very different weather picture from last week's cross race of rain and mud. Highs were in the 90s with dry and dusty conditions. Monson had a typical cross course that dropped into a slightly technical area of single track resulting in multiple flats with a long climb out with a combo of run-ups and steep climbing sections. The result was a second place in the women's field for central wheel thanks to a set of tubular tires and a new 42 ring for gearing. Palmer was a similar situation with a little more single track through dry rooty sections of Palmer, MA. Almost like a flat mountain bike course with a run-up to finish off the race. Race started out great for central wheel with Guilia in front leading the way for Silver Bull/Central Wheel which opened a spot for me to grab the Ladies First train. Cassie was close behind. Lines emerged in the roots with sweet banked sections resulting in faster loop times and a win for silver bull/central wheel with Cassie close behind in 4th and Guilia in 6th. Next up is UCI in PA.

Hartford Marathon Foundation - Litchfield Triathlon sponsored by Central Wheel
 
With a very wet Sunday Central Wheel finished the day very well. Despite the weather 262 triathlete's came out to finish in the rain. Central Wheel's Bill Schumann won the overall setting a course record of 1:59:21 and Christine Louden of West Hartford was the second women across the finish. She was beat out by Cassandra Maximenko a local pro (TIMEX). Cassandra is racing cyclocross for Central Wheel. Central Wheel's Dikran Yapoujian had a solid performance finishing 26th. After the race Dikran could not believe how fast his new Colonago Flight was. Central Wheel was on hand offering shelter, bike support, and a pursuit car fixing race mechanicals. The lefty cyclocross bike was on hand for test rides.
Blunt Park Cyclocross Race
The SilverBull/Central Wheel elite teams started the season off well. Graham Garber and John Hanson of SilverBull/Central Wheel finished 2nd and 3rd. Team tactics played out with Graham and John in a chase group of 5. Graham attacked from the 5 spot, the 3 chased towing John. John picked off each rider as they faltered. The Women Worked well in the chase group with Becca Blatt and Guilia Righi of SilverBull/Central Wheel taking a 5th and 9th.
Mount Washington Hill Climb
Central Wheel's Sean Cahill climbed up the 7.8 mile auto road in 64 minutes. He finished 18th overall wearing the 'the angry banana uniform'. Can he lop off 4 minutes next year? |
