Anthem puts on a good race with strong support and
competition! Joe, Chris and Dillon were the soldiers on the front line for Epic
Velo. The day was hotter then a Saudi
Arabians camel's hump! The riders were eager to go and the pace proved fast. The heat and
fatigue soon set in and people were crashing on straights for no reason at all.
CRASH COUNT
1.) a nasty crash into the 2
nd corner 3-5? went down. It happened behind the E.V. guys
2.) a crash on the back straight in the hot hot heat. Dillon was caught up in that one, didn't go down but had to stop
3.) A crash on the
chicane making Chris B. jump the curb and grind into the guard rail! He stayed up but the
peloton rode away.
4.) Last lap, back straight again. Riders getting tired and the pace was last lap hectic so some contact was made between two guys and they went down hard! Dillon, again using his
Mtb skills to narrowly miss this, his 4
th close call of the weekend!
Joe K. not getting involved in said crash #4 took 3rd place! Good job placing on the podium and staying upright guys!
