Nevada City Classic: 35+ 1-3

by Jason Walker

3rd in 2006. 2nd in 2008. 5th in 2008. 9th in 2009. 7th in 2010. 2nd in 2011.  Last year, 4th.

Above are my results in arguably my favorite race on the calendar, the Nevada City Classic. Okay, TDN and Cascade probably tie, but the recency effect counts for a lot.  I’ve been chasing a win at this race for 8 years.  I remember watching it in 2005, thinking how horrible it all looked – the high-speed corners, the climb up through town, the false flats and then the 40+mph descent – pure pain.  Trouble is, the course suits me very well, the town and locals are amazing, so I was going to race it every year.  It’s always on Father’s Day, so it’s become a family event for Kerri and I, which makes it even more special.

Angermann told me, 8 years ago, what I had to do to win the race.  I should listen to guys like Jeff.  I’ve followed his advice every year, but it didn’t all come together until this year.  Yes, I finally won it and it feels great.  But I didn’t win it in pure hard-man fashion like Jeff, Phipps, Martin, i.e. SOLO.  I wanted to, but I’m not strong enough.  Truth be told, I’m more satisfied with the way I won it, given the players in the field.

The boring details:

Folsom Bike old dudes started chatter about race “strategy” last week.  As previously hinted, this is always an “A” race for me, but the 3 teammates joining me – Dan Bryant, Jason Boynton and Nathan Parks – are all, on paper, more likely team leaders for this race.  They are fast.   There’s not much strategy for this race:  get to the front, survive the first 3 laps and then see if you can hold between 5.5-7 w/kg 10 more times for 2 minutes (45 seconds “rest” in between).

I’m guessing 40 or so guys lined up yesterday, mixed with 35+ and 45+ fields.  This always makes the race more interesting and could be a key reason I was able to win yesterday.

We would be doing a promenade lap this year (uh, “neutral” lap), which is easily my favorite lap of the entire race.  It’s hectic.  Everyone wants to be in the front row when the ping-pong paddle flips to green; elbows and knees are out to hold position, guys cut sidewalks, yelling, riding right next to the moto – all sorts of shenanigans.  The moto gave us the green just before the downhill and a mad dash for the front, at 40+mph, ensued.  I was 4th or 5th wheel into the bottom corner.

There were 6 guys in the race I was worried about:

Chris Phipps – toughest guy in the nation and won solo last year.

Mike Sayers – always fast, smart as hell.

Andrea Gil – seems to beat everyone in a sprint and can climb.

Jason Grefath – always does well here and has been going great.

Dan Martin – has won the race numerous times, solo or via sprint.

Josh Dapice – just won our district RR (35-39).

I saw Sayers, Gil, and Martin immediately and they all looked good.  I didn’t see Phipps for 4 or 5 laps, which isn’t uncommon at this race for him, but I didn’t see him at the start line either, so I was secretly hoping he was at the Giants game.  When I did finally see him he started doing what he does best – making the race hard.  He strung it out through the feed zone to the top of the climb.  I attacked over the top of the course a couple times, mainly to take the bottom corner faster, but also to see if I could blow the race up a bit.  Normally this race whittles down to 10 guys or so by the 5th lap, but we still had 20 guys hanging around.

The 35+ guys just sort of kept it hard and hung around each other most of the race, but the 45+ dudes were lighting each other up.  Dirk would attack, Pasco would respond.  Cale would counter, Roemer would respond.  I was impressed and thought their race was great to watch.  The other thing that happened in our race was some of the 45+ guys would respond to 35+ attacks.  This helped out a lot.  Phipps would attack and Cale would respond and people would line up behind. Some version of that happened 3 or 4 times with different players.  Having that many strong guys in the field helped keep it together.

But I was starting to get a bit concerned.  Someone should be getting away but nobody was.  I thought about putting in a big move to see if I could get away, but the more I thought about it the more I realized it didn’t make sense.  I’d burn a big match doing it and maybe it would mean Phipps, and some mix of 2 guys would be with me, but then what?  Phipps would wait a half lap, attack, and there wouldn’t be the other 6-8 guys to potentially cover.  So I waited.

I thought to myself, I’m actually okay if this comes down to a bunch sprint. I mean, I secretly wanted it.  You see, Andres Gil is the real deal when it comes to finishing.  Well, so is Sayers.  Gil beat me at Cat’s Hill and Nevada city last year in sneaky, super-seasoned, old-guy-finisher style moves.  I just marveled and took notes.  He has pop but he’s wily, too; a very dangerous combo.   I wanted to try and beat those guys in a sprint or some version of it.   So, again, I waited.

Then things started to fall apart.  I hadn’t seen the lap cards yet, but I knew the race was nearing the end.  All of a sudden, Phipps was gone and had 10 seconds on us going over the top of the course.  It just happened.  We all looked at each other and then I heard Cale or Dirk say, “I’m a 45er…”  Uh oh.  Have you seen Chris TT?

Phipps laid his arms on his bars, put his head down and started hammerin’.  Time for a race-saving move.  As we were about to start the descent I punched it hard to go after Chris.  This is when I decided to look at the lap card.  2.   Oh jeez, this is going to hurt.   I knew I could get 3 or 4 seconds back from him on the corner but I’d basically have to go all out on the climb to catch him.  So I chased and caught up to Chris on the first false flat.

Side Note:  this false flat totally sucks.  It’s basically a block long, after the fast/hard bottom part of the climb and right before the steepest part of the course.  You are gassed from the bottom and trying to recover for the punchy section.  Martin went there 2 years ago.  Game over.  Phipps went there last year.  Game over.  Gil also went there last year on the final lap, also game over.  I’m scared of this section.

So I caught Chris and then saw something that was different.  I haven’t raced with the pros much (or at all, really) so I haven’t witnessed big-boy moves often.   Right when I caught Chris, Sayers came by us going what seemed like 10mph faster.  I was shocked.  It’s one thing to do that on a flat course, but knowing how hard he had to go to get to us and then do that…wow!  That, I thought, was the race.  But obviously it wasn’t, which is why you are reading this horribly long, self-absorbed recap.  Hang with me just a bit longer.

Well, I just stayed with Chris and the rest of the boys and hoped Mike would come back to us.  He did, at the top of the course.  But the attacks had lost some guys, which is good.  I think there were 8 of us when we started the descent to see 1 to go, and I think Bryant said something to me but nothing registered.

I knew the last climb was going to be hard, really hard.   But I also knew it would stay fast, so nobody would be able to get the type of instant gap that Mike got on the last lap.  I just had to stay with the group up the steep section – they couldn’t drop me anywhere on the rest of the course.  The guys didn’t disappoint, as the pace stayed fast and hard all the way to the top of the course.  I was third over the top, sitting on Gil’s wheel with Cale leading it.  Nervous time.  When would Gil go?  Both recent times he beat me he went first and I never closed the gap.  But it seem too early to go.  Just then, Grefath came up next to me on the right and was winding it up for the last 200 meters before the real descent starts.  I know Jason doesn’t have Gil- or Sayers-type pop, but he can hold big watts for a long time.  He’s a perfect lead-out guy.  So I jumped on his wheel and prepared for a sprint.

It’s probably 200-300 meters from where the descent starts to the finish line.  It’s a legit 45+mph sprint.  Given this, and having done the race 7 times previously, I knew it would be very hard to get around someone when you are going that fast.  So I needed to go first.  Just as the descent started I went hard and angled for the curb to take the inside line on the subtle left-hander.  I knew guys were close, on my right, and assumed it was Gil.  I just kept pumping the legs and then reached the point where I knew they couldn’t come by me.  I got one hand off the bars but couldn’t consider any Sagan-esque finish line antics.

I didn’t talk much of my teammates, which isn’t meant as a slight.  There really aren’t many team tactics that can be played on this course.  Nevada City is an attrition and position race.   You are either climbing all out, where a draft really isn’t helpful, or you are going 40mph setting up for a nervous corner.  The only places the team could seemingly help are 200 meters long.  Dan was there at the end, and he covered one of Phipps’ attacks, which helped me a bunch mentally.  Nathan and JB were there until just about the end, but burnt some matches moving up after the corner.   Those 2 guys have already won a couple races apiece this season and were there because they know how important the race was to me.  Thanks, guys.

And the most important team is pictured below.  I heard them every lap, and though they love coming to the races, they could care less about where I finish as long as I come home.

Which brings up a very important topic:  Coming home after a bike ride or race.  Soapboxy, preachy stuff coming here:  Jim Rogers lost his life while on his bicycle because someone was on a cell phone.

Our masters race is dedicated to the memory of Jim.  His family is at our race every year to start us.  Please consider the importance of your cell phone while you are driving your car.

Trofeo Carlsberg by Geoffrey Curran

Trofeo Carlsberg by Geoffrey Curran

This race has been quite eventful. The 2013 event of Trofeo Carlsberg has gone through some sun, wet, then some more sun. Some short steep hills, a TT, and some more short steep hills. The formula seems to be race for a break til you drop, wait til the Brits and maybe a Dane or two chase you down. Help Miguel into position.  Dodge the furniture and roll across the line. Flip around to team car and relax. Eat some pasta. Have a good time at dinner. Massage, sleep, repeat.

Today was destined to be different. Mads was in yellow, the phenomenon gained six seconds in the bonuses by winning stage 3b. After he won stage 3a. We try our best, but somehow, somehow… Wait…I know how…he’s incredible! Enough talk about a Dane. USA rolled up to a bus stop in a Peugeot spaceship and a team car. It was sunny, so Justin took his shirt and shorts off as usual. I saw a “rad team” truck and took a picture of him in front of it. We sat around some, pee’d behind a wall, and finally decided to dress up in our colorful bike outfits. I applied some sunblock, and then gave some to Brendan. As usual, the teenage banter about how, “I don’t need sunblock, I just tan” came out. Wait 50 years, young lads. We rode to sign in and smile for some cameras as always, and twice for Billy with his two phones.

We knew 100 hilly kilometers separated us from success and some time off. Billy told us who to watch on our cue sheets, and then told us to race as we always do. He doesn’t complicate it for us simple-minded kids. There’s usually a scrum for gear control, but since there is neutral, I sat back and relaxed. After rolling my bike backwards, I started last with Brendan and Ansel. The com car rolled along up a climb and everyone tried not to crash while crashing everyone else out to move up. That’s the cue to wait at the back. It’s quite relaxing, until I need to jump on the sidewalk to move up a bit.

Kilometer zero arrives and nothing happens. This is beautiful. It signaled that today would be lighter than most, until USA put the hammer down. I look behind and see yellow. At least the Danish team thinks I can at least threaten their leader. Attacks go, come back. The speed goes up and down. People are constantly hitting these poles unique to Gersheim, DE. They sit about where the middle of an American bike lane would be, just there, waiting to snag a Slovenian with his head down. I glanced behind and saw yellow. I tried to slyly roll off the front, but Mr. Pedersen was there again. I smiled in acknowledgment of his duty for the day and decided I should just ride through tight spots to see if he could follow. I later learned that he was going wild to stay on my wheel and nearly taking people down. I take it as a complement. More people hit poles and I nearly hit poles. They are quite a hazard.

I told my trusty mate Phil to be near the front on the last lap for a mad dash up the hill. We rolled around the penultimate lap. After the start/finish into the climb, Brendan was plugging away on the front. I was staring at his calves, in awe at how the big man can climb. Everyone was doing the same, I guarantee. Justin arrived and took over at a higher pace, then halfway up I came around and went all out. I looked back and saw the reason I race my bike. Splits were forming on the climb and the race was shredded. No matter if is Cook’s Corner or Live Oak on Como, or a Nations Cup, I still get the same high from watching others’ pain. On the bike, of course. I came over the top and blasted the descent. I saw my all-rounder mates Justin and Phil in the 15-man group and we hit it. I saw a danger man in the group and decided that if he were not dropped on the next hill, we would kill the move. He lifted the pace and attacked on the climb. So we sat up and the field caught us. I miraculously stayed in position and saw some USA. I towed them to the front and tried to stay there. I eventually got on the front and stayed there until 200 meters to go, which is a sign of improvement over my blunt elbow days spent midpack in sprints. I heard a carbon-crunching crash and went a little faster. Mads won the stage again, but we’ll look at the positive. I finished 2nd overall, though Mads didn’t spray the champagne on the podium, which was disappointing. USA had a great run over the 2 weeks away from Sittard. We won two races, had 2 second places, 3 top fives, and 2 top tens. It may only be junior racing, but when did Fabian win CBR 35+?

Shelley Olds (TIBCO) and Juan José Haedo(Jamis) win Stillwater Criterium(Nature Valley)

Team TIBCO Goes One-Two on Stage; Shelley Olds Wins Overall Title
By Cynthia Lou for Nature Valley Grand Prix

It was a big day for Team TIBCO as Shelley Olds captured the overall victory, Claudia Hausler and Joanne Kiesanowski took first and second on the Stillwater Criterium stage, Hausler won the SportBeans Queen of the Hills competition, and Team TIBCO won the team classification.

Jade Wilcoxson (Optum p/b Kelly Benefits Strategies) started the final race with a one second lead ahead of Olds but crashed in the last corner of the last lap before what would have been her last trip up Chilkoot Hill. Wilcoxson was unable to finish the race.

“I’m just so proud of my team,” said Olds. “We stuck together the whole stage race, we were composed, we had a plan the whole time and we executed on the final day.”

With Team TIBCO’s strategy to slowly chip away seconds from Olds’ overall time on each stage, today’s move was to set the pace at the front and control the race, which split the peloton early.

Specialized-lulelemon continued yesterday’s trend of aggressive solo attacks, sending Ally Stacher out with seven laps to go out of 13 total laps of the 2.2k, 12-corner course featuring the 18% average grade of Chilkoot Hill.

Perhaps channeling the energy of the Carly Swart jersey which was awarded earlier in the day to Amber Gaffney (Optum p/b Kelly Benefits Strategies), the rider who is voted by the peloton to have sacrificed the most for her team, Stacher stayed away for several laps alone.

She was eventually joined by teammate Tayler Wiles and Team TIBCO’s Kiesanowski. Behind them Optum p/b Kelly Benefits Strategies and Team TIBCO relaxed just a bit, watching each other and resting, waiting until the final few laps to strike again.

At two laps to go Hausler went on the attack and bridged up to the lead group.

“I felt like I could close the gap,” said Hausler about her bridge to the front group. “The people are amazing here, the crowd was amazing, it’s very easy to go full gas up the climb.”

With Wiles and Stacher working together, and Team TIBCO setting up for an overall win, Kiesanowski had been able to sit in on the three-woman breakaway, giving her an opportunity to rest.

Once Hausler made contact with the group, Hausler and Kiesanowski took off ahead of Wiles and Stacher in the final lap, finishing first, second, third and fourth on the stage.

Behind them, the aggressive hunt for yellow saw the Optum train setting up along the outer fence on the downhill before the final turn as Team TIBCO’s Lauren Stephens and Olds set up on the inside. Wilcoxson took the turn wide, hitting a groove on the outside of the asphalt and street gutter and crashed, while Olds sprinted to the finish line for a fifth-place finish on the stage and the overall win.

“Optum was lined up on the left side on the downhill and I had one teammate Lauren Stephens in front of me trying to get me through that corner first,” said Olds. “Jade jumped ahead of us and took that last corner first. I told my teammate to move out of the way, and I took the inside corner. Jade had a huge lead out from me already, but when she went through the corner on the outside she crashed into the gate.”

This is Olds’ second overall victory at the Nature Valley Grand Prix.

“In 2010 when I won this race I was so happy leaving here, I kept so many friends from the area that followed me through the Olympics, that supported me on Facebook,” said Olds. “It’s just an amazing community of people here, I’ve made a lot of good friends and have so many great fans from the area.”

Stacher’s efforts earned her the Freewheel Bike Most Aggressive Rider jersey. Hausler won the SportBeans Queen of the Hill jersey, Wiles the TRIA Orthopaedic Center Best Young Rider jersey, Anna Christiansen (Nature Valley Cycling Team) the Nature Valley Best Amateur jersey, and Katharine Wells the Xcel Energy Sprint jersey.

Haedo Wins Third Stage While Friedman Takes Overall NVGP Title
By Pat Borzi

J.J. Haedo completed a sweep of the three criterium stages in the six-stage Nature Valley Grand Prix on Sunday, winning the Stillwater Criterium with a spirited final climb up strength-sapping Chilkoot Hill. But he could not keep Mike Friedman from his first overall victory on American soil.

Friedman’s Optum Pro Cycling p/b Kelly Benefit Strategies teammates – including last year’s winner, Tom Zirbel – escorted him through the first 18 laps of the 20-lap criterium Sunday, spreading out across the course when necessary to keep general classification challengers Andres Diaz and Eric Marcotte of Elbowz Racing behind them. Friedman, who entered Sunday with a 37-second lead, wrapped up the general classification (GC) by placing second behind Haedo, of Jamis Hagens Berman/Sutter Home.

“That’s a bit of negative racing, but that’s the way it’s played,” said Friedman, whose only other overall victory came at the Tour de Korea in 2010. “We fought for the GC earlier in the week by going for the time bonues and racing hard. Today it was about defending it. These guys did fantastic job.”

Friedman’s overall time of 11 hours, 11 minutes and 12 seconds put him 40 seconds ahead of Diaz. Marcotte, the top amateur who lived in the Uptown neighborhood of Minneapolis for five years, took third, 46 seconds back. The judges did not penalize Marcotte for crashing into spectators peering down tree-lined Chilkoot on his final lap and falling off his bike. Marcotte received the same time as the group he was with when he fell.

“It would have been obviously hard for us to get 30-something, 40 seconds off of Friedman,” Marcotte said.

“Optum raced really well. They played their cards right and we stuck it to them. But the field wasn’t quite as deep as it’s been in the past, which is why it’s harder to shatter things because the other riders aren’t quite as strong to help you get things to rip apart. Jamis did a great job here, too,” Marcotte added.

Friedman and teammate Scott Zwizanski began the day first and second in the GC. Optum’s Michael Creed dropped off the pace early, but Zirbel, Jesse Anthony, Zwizanski and Chad Haga ran enough interference to keep Diaz and Marcotte fenced in behind them. Optum lost its spread capability after a tiring Haga eased up with six laps to go, allowing riders to attack up the right side of Chilkoot.

Time trial winner Serghei Tvetcov of Jelly Belly, Sam Bassetti of California Giant/Specialized and Joseph Schmalz of Elbowz tried to break away with three laps to go, but Zirbel, Anthony and Zwizanski chased them down. Haedo’s teammate, premier climber Janier Acevedo, made a big move for the lead on the final lap, with Haedo and Friedman among those in pursuit.

“The last lap, I told Janier to attack,” Haedo said. “I told him to try to get the win in the breakaway, and I saved myself for the sprint. In my case, I knew I had one shot to do it.”

That was enough to edge Friedman in the stage by two seconds. Jesse Goodrich’s third place finish helped California Giant edge Optum by five seconds for the team title. Zwizanski dropped to fourth, with Anthony fifth.

Zirbel, who saw his chance of defending his title fizzle by finishing 36th in the Cannon Falls Road Race on Thursday, was thrilled for Friedman.

“I was disappointed with myself on Cannon Falls day, taking myself out of the race,” Zirbel said. “But I had the utmost confidence in Mike to pull it off.

“As long as we win, it doesn’t mater who it is. I’m really excited because these guys are always working for me, or whoever. They’re just great teammates. For them to have their opportunity to win, I’m super-excited.”

Other jersey winners included Bissell’s Nicolai Brochner for Best Young Rider, Ricardo Van Der Velde of Jelly Belly for Best Sprinter, Cash Call’s Chris Barton for King of the Mountain, and Schmalz for Most Aggressive Rider.

JUNGELS CLAIMS SECOND WIN OF SEASON

JUNGELS CLAIMS SECOND WIN OF SEASON

The fourth team win in as many days didn’t come without controversy. RADIOSHACK LEOPARD TREK rider Bob Jungels took the stage four victory in the Skoda Tour de Luxembourg on Sunday, initially winning the white jersey for best young rider, too. But a complaint filed by team Blanco made a few changes to the final results.

Jungels: “In the second to last lap Hondo pulled for me to make an attack and I was close to his left side. When he dropped off, he took his right hand to motion for me to go and I took off but I didn’t take his hand.”

The initial complaint of Jungels receiving a track-style hand sling from teammate Danilo Hondo was awarded a 10-second time penalty as well as 200 euro fine, but he was allowed to keep the stage win. The time penalty took Jungels out of the white jersey as best young rider and off the final podium.

Jungels: “We saw yesterday that Jan and I were the strongest on the climbs. Today I had Danilo at my side. On the second to last lap I told Jan to do the beginning of the climb fast and then there was a part where it was more flat and I was with Hondo. I attacked and passed the others, going full gas on the last lap alone. That last lap was really hard. I put the big chain ring on and went as hard as I could before the climb. At 50m to go I saw Martens on my wheel. I tried to accelerate away but I couldn’t. I missed the overall by three seconds. We tried everything but Blanco was really strong. I think we showed great team effort here in Luxembourg and we can be really happy with winning three stages in five days.” Second place went to Paul Martens (Blanco) with RSLT teammate Jan Bakelants taking third on the stage and Martens winning the classification for the race, ahead of Jonathan Hivert (Sojasun) at 4 seconds and Jan Bakelants (at 6 seconds).

Stage 4 in the Skoda Tour de Luxembourg was from Mersch to Luxembourg at 143.6 km and consisted of 5 local laps with steep climb to the finish. Teammate Jan Bakelants explained the team strategy: “The plan was to send Bob on the second to last lap. There was some hesitation in the peloton so he got a gap. On the last climb I was up to do the sprint in case Bob was brought back. In the end I finished in the wheel of Martens, but at least he couldn’t pass Bob and we won the stage.”

All week the team has been under the direction of José Azevedo: “I am a very happy team director. It would have been better to win the GC of course. That was our main goal. But the team worked so well together this week. There was good team spirit and we’ve won three out of five stages. I’m happy and proud.” After two stage wins on Friday and Saturday, Giacomo Nizzolo won the blue jersey of the points leader.

Jungels, 20, has been hailed the past few years as an emerging young talent in cycling. Earlier this year in his neo-pro year he won the GP Nobili by a wide 53-second margin from a successful breakaway. Seriously taking up the sport at age 17, Jungels took the silver medal at the 2009 Juniors European Time Trial Championships, and then won the Juniors World Time Trial Championship the following year. Prior to turning professional, he won the 2012 Paris-Roubaix U23, overall in Flèche du Sud, the Luxembourg national U23 time trial championships and a stage in the Giro della Valle d’Aosta Mont Blanc.

Stephens Wins The Solo-Breakaway Dominated Menomonie Road Race
By Cynthia Lou

The Memonomie Road Race was a race dominated by solo breakaways, but it was Team TIBCO’s Lauren Stephens’ attack up a steep climb with 20 miles to go that brought her the stage win by 32 seconds. Her bold move forced Optum Pro Cycling p/b Kelly Benefit Strategies to work to defend Jade Wilcoxson’s yellow jersey, giving Team TIBCO the ability to position Shelley Olds to win the field sprint for second place on the stage and collect an eight-second time bonus. Olds now sits just one second out of the overall race lead behind Wilcoxson.

“We’re saving it all for the last day, keeping it interesting,” beamed Olds.

“I didn’t know if I was going to stay away, I didn’t know if I was setting the team up for something, I just knew I was supposed to be going for it and so I kept going,” said Stephens. “I just knew, go faster, go harder, if I stayed away I stayed away.”

The race finished with four 2.8-mile laps around downtown Menomonie. Stephens entered the circuits with a one-minute 25 second lead, and had the support of her team director and husband – who had just finished racing in the pro men’s race – standing on the sidelines giving time splits, direction and encouragement.

“Manel (Lacambra, team director for Team TIBCO) told me, ‘We’re going to manage it, we’re going to decide in a lap. Then on the next lap he told me to go, go, go. ”

The encouragement must have worked, because Stephens rode increasingly faster splits around the circuits.

But it was former Irish Road and Time Trial Champion Olivia Dillon (Specialized-lululemon) who set the pace for solo breakaways, hitting an aggressive pace to break away at 17 miles into the race, holding it until near capture at the 53-mile mark, only to hit the gas again for another solo attack.

“They were gaining on me then they all sat up, so I thought, well, I’m going to go for it,” said Dillon of the seven person chase group that contained Olds and Wilcoxson. “I saw Taylor (Wiles) was in the group so she could sit on and if they caught she would be fresh. I didn’t expect to gain again as much as I did, so I just drilled it.”

Eventually Dillon was caught by Stephens’ solo bridge at mile 60. Shortly after the two connected, Stephens took off on the final solo attack of the day that ended in victory. Dillon remained alone until she was caught just before entering the final circuits.

Carmen Small, who won the overall Nature Valley Grand Prix in 2012, is in third place, 11 seconds behind Wilcoxson. With such tight time increments between the top general classification contenders, tomorrow’s final stage in Stillwater with the infamous 18% average-grade Chilkoot Hill will be exciting indeed.

The day’s jerseys:
Anne Perry (Birchwood Cycling) was awarded the Freewheel Bike Most Aggressive Rider jersey. Dillon now wears the SportBeans Queen of the Hills jersey, and Stephens moves up the general classification to claim the TRIA Orthopaedic Center Best Young Rider jersey. Katharine Hall (Kowalski’s Market’s Collegiate All-Stars) reclaimed the Nature Valley Best Amateur jersey. Kimberly Wells (Colavita-Fine Cooking) keeps the Xcel Energy Sprint jersey.

Amateur McCabe Saves Enough to Win Menomonie Road Race
By Pat Borzi, for Nature Valley Grand Prix
 
Road races aren’t usually won like this.

Travis McCabe, an amateur riding for Elbowz Racing p/b Boneshaker Project, bolted with an eight-man group that led the Menomonie Road Race for about 70 of its 101 miles. When the field inevitably caught up, as it did Saturday with 18 miles to go, the leaders routinely fall back while fresher teammates vie for spots on the podium.

But not McCabe. The runner-up in Friday night’s Uptown Minneapolis Criterium, McCabe, 24, still had enough left to outsprint time trial stage winner Serghei Tvetcov on the last lap of the four-lap closing circuit in Menomonie for his first career Nature Valley Grand Prix stage victory.

His effort on an overcast afternoon was so extraordinary that Cash Call Mortgage’s Chris Barton, another of the gang of eight, approached McCabe after the race with wonder and awe. “You don’t get to be in the breakaway and win the race,” he said. “How did you do that?”

Mainly, McCabe said, because he didn’t work that hard. The eight-man pack united in its desire to keep the Optum Pro Cycling p/b Kelly Benefit Strategies team from accruing any more time bonuses. So everyone took turns on the lead, leaving McCabe fresher when Tvetcov attacked on the circuit.

“Serghei is very strong,” McCabe said. “I knew I still had something left in me, so I was able to make the jump on the back side coming into that last corner. I pushed it. I know he was closing me pretty quick, but it was enough time.”

Overall leader Mike Friedman of Optum finished fifth, 14 seconds behind McCabe, but close enough to keep the yellow jersey heading into Sunday’s sixth and final stage, the Stillwater Criterium. The Optum team controlled the front of the peloton and eventually caught the breakaway group, making up three minutes and 40 seconds.

Of the eight that broke away — McCabe, Barton, Ruben Companioni of Jamis Hagens Berman, Jelly Belly’s Ricardo Van Der Velde, Jared Barrilleaux of California Giant, Connor McCutcheon and Dennis Ramirez Mejia and Chris Winn of Horizon – none ranked in the top 12 in the overall standings. Only Van Der Velde (no. 15) and Barton (No. 20) cracked the top 20. So Friedman said Optum was content to let them ride out – to a point.

“Honestly, if (Van Der Velde) wasn’t in that move, we would have let the break go to four minutes or five minutes, then reeled it back to three minutes and let it stick,” Friedman said. “With Ricardo in there, we had to set a pretty stiff tempo to keep him in check.”

As the course wound past woodlands, dairy farms and freshly-planted crop fields, Meija and Barton fell back, leaving six riders at the front. A scrambling Companioni kept pace after changing a flat rear tire at the 61-mile mark. He tried to sneak away at mile 82. But the peloton had been gaining, and one mile later it caught Companioni and the others.

“Our plan was to make sure we had one guy in the breakaway, kind of taking it easy, sitting back,” said McCabe, a strategy to help teammates Andres Diaz and Eric Marcotte, who ranked third and fourth overall going into the stage. When the field bunched up, Diaz and Marcotte told McCabe to go for the podium

“Optum was doing a great job keeping everything in check,” McCabe said. “Going into the circuits, I figured we’d give it one more shot, just make sure (Optum) didn’t get any more time bonuses on us.”

So McCabe took off, with Tvetcov, Guido Palma of Jamis, and Kit Recca of Horizon in pursuit. None was a threat to Friedman’s yellow jersey. “I didn’t think it was going to stick, but Optum was happy with letting it go,” McCabe said. The last lap found McCabe and Tvetcov head to head. Palma finished third and Recca fourth.

“My speciality is not sprinting, so I just tried to attack,” Tvetcov said. “This guy who won, he’s a good sprinter, so it was dangerous for me. He caught my attack and counterattack and opened a small gap. I tried to close it, but it was too late.”

Lucas Euser (UnitedHealthcare) Tour de Beauce

Marc De Maar out sprinted Antoine Duchesne (Bontrager) and Oscar Clark (Hincapie Sportswear Development) to win stage 5 of the Tour de Beauce.  Francisco Mancebo retains the yellow and 5hr Energy will continue defending the leaders jersey.

Nathan Brown ((Bontrager) is five seconds behind Mancebo for the overall lead with Matthew Cooke (Century Road Club) in third at eight seconds back. Sunday should be a great race.

NIZZOLO CHARGES TO SECOND VICTORY

NIZZOLO CHARGES TO SECOND VICTORY

In an unprecedented three-in-a-row string of victories for RADIOSHACK LEOPARD TREK, Giacomo Nizzolo outkicked the others to take a second sprint victory in as many days.

Saturday’s queen stage of climbing was not meant for the sprinters, but Giacomo Nizzolo survived the final split in the peloton along with 29 other riders. Nizzolo: “The goal today was to suffer as much as possible. We also had the ambitions to protect with Bob and Jan on GC so I was instructed to hold the wheels as much as I could. We ended up catching them at 3 or 4 k to go and I prepared for the sprint. At the last corner I was third and I started my sprint at 100 meters. It was a little bit uphill and it was hard.” Nizzolo finished ahead of Alexey Tsatevitch of Katusha. Teammate Bob Jungels is fifth on GC at six seconds behind race leader Jonathan Hivert (Sojasun).

Nizzolo’s win marks the third win in three days for the RADIOSHACK LEOPARD TREK. In the Tour de Suisse on Thursday, Gregory Rast earned his first stage victory in his home tour, sending team morale up the confidence scale. Then on Friday Nizzolo scored a sprint win in the Skoda Tour de Luxembourg, and notched up one more victory in Saturday’s 178.8km stage from Eschweiler to Diekirch to cap off the run of wins.

Teammates Jan Bakelants and Bob Jungels had ambitions for the stage win and yellow jersey as the team GC riders. On the final climb of Heulewee in Diekirch, the duo attacked and managed to get away. They caught the remains of the day’s break in Karsten Kroon, but all three were brought back at 3km to go from the chasing efforts of team Blanco.

Bakelants: “I was trying for the stage win and we wanted to put Bob in yellow. The team did so much work during the day, chasing hard to bring back the break of three. We had to chase so hard. If our team hadn’t done that hard work, there would be no win today – someone from the break would have won.”

Asked how hard the final climb was, Giacomo Nizzolo said, “My goal today was to die on the bike on this climb. In the end I just made it in the peloton with about 30 guys and my teammates in the front. When we caught them I got ready for the sprint. I am so tired now. But the morale on the team is so high; the win today was easier.”

When told that today’s stage was the queen stage of climbing and perhaps he could go for another sprint win on Sunday’s final stage, he replied, “Well, when you say today was the queen stage, then perhaps I will think about it. In my head today I was thinking this was my last chance. We’ll see what happens.”

The Skoda Tour de Luxembourg comes to a conclusion on Sunday. The final stage begins in Mersch and ends in Luxembourg at 143.6km.

Haedo Steals Uptown Stage, Friedman Maintains Lead
By Pat Borzi, for Nature Valley Grand Prix

Optum Pro Cycling controlled the pace throughout the Uptown Minneapolis Criterium (Stage 4 of the Nature Valley Grand Prix), but J.J. Haedo of Jamis Hagens Berman stole the stage victory from Optum’s Mike Friedman.

With darkness falling, Haedo propelled himself out of the final corner to beat amateur Travis McCabe of Elbowz Racing and Friedman, the overall leader, to the line in one hour, 10 minutes and 54 seconds. Friedman earned 14 seconds worth of time bonuses to maintain the leader’s yellow jersey by 37 seconds over teammate Scott Zwizanski going into Saturday’s fifth stage, the Menomonie Road Race. The NVGP concludes Sunday with the Stillwater Criterium.

“It was really, really chaotic,” Friedman said.

It didn’t have to be. Friedman’s five teammates – Jesse Anthony, defending champion Tom Zirbel, Michael Creed, Chad Haga and Zwizanski – chased downed every rider who tried to break away. A single-file line of orange helmets escorted Friedman into the final lap.

“You guys saw it. It was unbelieveable,” Friedman said. “Every guy sold out. It was fantastic.”

Meanwhile, Haedo, Fast Freddie Rodriguez of Jelly Belly and McCabe, one of five amateurs on the seven-member Elbowz team, positioned themselves near Friedman for a final sprint. The last turn, a 90-degree right from Lake Street onto Hennepin Avenue, tripped up Rodriguez.

“Freddie kind of got in front of me with one lap to go,” Haedo said. “I let him in because he’s a good rider and I know he can go from a sprint. He got in a little bit of trouble in the last corner. That’s why I got next to him out of the corner. From then to the line, it was more like a drag race.”

“We really knew Optum was really just trying to maintain (Friedman’s yellow jersey),” said McCabe. “It’s their job right now to pretty much control the field and keep everything in grasp.

“We knew coming in that at the end, Jelly Belly had a lot of strong sprinters – Brad Huff, Freddie Rodriguez. We knew Haedo is always going to be right there. I was just up there to fight for myself. Eric (Marcotte) put me in good position, and on the last lap I was on my own.”

Friedman led into the last corner, with Rodriguez second, Haedo third and McCabe fourth. McCabe took an inside route and passed Rodriguez, but Haedo proved too strong to catch.

“I wasn’t too worried about getting to that last corner first,” Friedman said. “I just had to be in the top three to the last corner so I could get across the line in one of the top spots. My team sold out for me, so I have to sell out for them.

“If you make mistake, you’re going to crash. Your bar to bar, going into a corner at 33-miles an hour. You have to jump out of the corner. It’s bumpy. If you make one mistake, you’re in the ditch. And it’s getting dark on top of it. You can’t hear anything because the crowd’s yelling. And you have five different teams vying for that last spot, going into that corner first. It’s a battle royale, man.”

And Haedo had no problem denying an Optum victory.

“They did what they had to do,” he said. “They had to control the race. Mike is taking the little bonuses. They had to control it. They have the strongest team.  We don’t have the team to do that. It’s not taking advantage. It’s the way the game is.”

Second Win in a Row for Wilcoxson at Uptown Minneapolis Criterium
By Cynthia Lou for Nature Valley Grand Prix

Optum Pro Cycling p/b Kelly Benefits Strategies showed the depth of its talent through the team’s relentless attacking on the day, then quickly regrouping during the frenetic last laps of the race to deliver Jade Wilcoxson and her yellow jersey to the finish line for her second Nature Valley Grand Prix stage win in a row.

It was a day again governed by the fight to chip away seconds and reach for the overall race victory as Team TIBCO set up Shelley Olds for 18 seconds of time bonuses on the stage and a second placed finish. Carmen Small (Specialized-lululemon) claimed 10 seconds of time bonus and third on the stage in Minneapolis on Friday night.

Typically the yellow jersey team rides on the defensive, but Optum p/b Kelly Benefits Strategies was on the hunt, sending rider after rider out on the attack.

“The riders going off the front are all still within a minute of the lead so the other teams just can’t let them go and lap the field, they have to react,” said Rachel Heal, team director of the women’s Optum p/b Kelly Benefits Strategies squad. “That was the plan, leave the other teams to work until a lap to go.”

Denise Ramsden and Brianna Walle (both Optum) were on the attack in the first lap. Team TIBCO was on the chase to bring it all together for Olds to claim the first time bonus victory. Within a few laps, another break was established by Leah Kirchmann (Optum). The pattern repeated, with Team TIBCO and Specialized-lululemon on the chase to bring Olds and Small to claim first and third on the second time bonus sprint.

Ramsden was again out on a break shortly after that time bonus competition that lasted nearly half the race.

Team TIBCO kept the break at about a 10 second leash, and lined up what seemed to be a perfect lead out to the finish, a straight line of blue from five laps out, Olds tucked in 4 deep with a sweeper behind her.  With two laps to go, Wilcoxson tucked in behind the blue train with just one teammate nearby. Carmen Small sat in her saddle right behind Wilcoxson.

“I’m not gonna lie, with two to go,” laughed Wilcoxson while shaking her head. “Lauren was there, Lauren took care of me. Things were kind of sketchy out there and I told her just to get me to the front and keep me safe. Forget about the sprint let’s stay safe. With one to go all my girls were up there, like a dream. I was on their wheel and from there on out it was a perfect lead out.”

Olds moves up to second place overall, nine seconds behind Wilcoxson. Small is in third overall, 11 seconds back.

“That’s why I love this race, it’s wide-open-the-whole-way stage race,” said Olds. “It’s interesting every day, and a different type of rider can win every day.”

“We had to gamble a little bit because we don’t have the depth of the other two teams,” said Small, about her surfing for position through the last laps. “We have to play our cards when they count and tonight isn’t necessarily what’s going to make or break the race for us. We needed to cover moves [at this race] and save a little bit for Saturday.”

Olds received the Freewheel Bike Most Aggressive Rider jersey for the day.
Wilcoxson takes over the Xcel Energy Sprint points lead. Walle keeps the SportBeans Queen of the Hills jersey, Mia Loquai the Nature Valley Best Amateur jersey, and Ramsden the TRIA Orthopaedic Center Best Young Rider jersey.
