April 29, 2007, NY Spring Series Last Race - Prospect Park


Masters 35+

Results:None

Distance: 43 miles

Report: Big Carbo attacks over the hill half way through separated the field. Tom, Doug, Dave and Jackson make the split... Jackson being lucky to be at the front and on Carbo's wheel when he launched!

Anyway, with a few to go Geoff Bickford goes with a couple Sony's and a Kreb and Carbo bridges up... five away, no WW's. Doug, Tom and Dave sit on the front of the field for many laps thereafter killing themselves to keep the gap down with little help from the many single riders in the 20 or so rider group. Jackson takes a few hard pulls. On bell the break is right in front of us on the hill, Doug launches with one Kreb and gets caught in limbo, break picks it up again and Doug hangs on for 6th despite surging group at the line. We rode well and then missed the break and then rode well some more. Oh well.
