And on to Cyclocross…
With the G20 race behind us, a few team members are going to be doing a few months of Cyclocross racing this fall.
The final weekend of September, Grove City hosted a Month of Mud cyclocross race. The Month of Mud series is a Western Pennsylvania legacy, going back over 20 years. Steevo Cummings took home an exciting sprint WIN after battling with Gerry Pflug for the entire race.
This past weekend, Mike Stubna raced “The Iron Cross – Americas longest cross race,” in central PA.
Mike lasted with the lead group for over 3 hours, but cracked pretty hard in the last hour, losing 13 places. Mike dropped back and settled for a respectable 18th against over 250 starters.
Below Mike is in the lead group alongside multiple time national champion and world’s team member Jeremiah Bishop.
Steevo Cummings headed to Cincinnati for one of the only internationally ranked 3 day cyclocross weekends in the world. Steevo battled against the current American and Danish cyclocross national champions. He finished a very respectable 16th, 21st, and 15th over the three days.
Steevo got a good photo on the Velo News website.
Friday was a very muddy day.
The course required multiple runs, and multiple bike switches to keep the bike clean (notice 2 different bikes between the 2 photos.)
