A collection of CBRC’s finest ventured to Syracuse this weekend for the long running Tour de Syracuse.  The team had racers in nearly every field, and pulled out some great results along the way.  Highlights included:

• Emma White and Phil Hershberger winning the criterums  and green jerseys.
• Jim Leone riding to a strong eighth place finish in the very demanding road race.
• Joe Toth rocking in the time trial and battling back from a mechanical in the road race.

Along with these results, CBRC racers rode aggressively, making themselves a force to be reckoned with in each field.  Seth deMarrais made a epic solo breakin the cat 5 Crit, only to suffer the heartbreak of being caught with less than one lap to go.  Brad Stratton animated in the crit Cat 4 too and  Kirby Hazlip rode well in his first stage race and first race since upgrading to cat 4. Vice Prez, Lizzie Lukowski represented in the women’s field, with a strong TT performance.   Gene Primomo, Paul McDonnell and Danny Goodwin raced well in the 45+  and even I managed to represent us briefly in the 1/2/3 crit.

All in all, it was a fantastic race weekend for the team.  Great job everyone.
