Pete Lucke (2nd) Bob Dahl 1st, on the line! |
The Mix1 team lined up with Matt Vawter, Butch Stinton, Adam Asnes, Larry Cornman, Henrik Pedersen, Pete Lucke. The race got off to a fast start due to a howling wind blowing down the one and only incline of the course. This caused the riders to be echeloned for every lap going into the headwind and persistent attacks occurred in this location. Mix1 riders were either throwing in attacks or covering them knowing full well that if a breakaway went, it would be the winning move. And, true to form, a break did go which included 8 riders. Of the 8, Mix1 was represented by Adam and Pete. This was a good move for the team since there were 4 Mix1 riders protecting the break in the main group and covering any moves trying to bridge. The break had a lot of horsepower in it and with attacks coming from within the break only 4 riders were left to contest the final sprint which ended in a photo finish with Bob Dahl from Boulder Orthopedics winning and Pete Lucke a close second. Adam was able to finish between the break and the rest of the field for 5th and Matt Vawter finishing 10th after doing a lot of work for the team.
