Clif Bar/ECV Cyclo-Cross - C2Gloucester, USA, November 2, 20032002 Results Results Past winners Dunlap and Wells ride to victory in Verge NECCS #2Typical New England Fall weather greeted the 443 riders and numerous other spectators who arrived at the Clif Bar/ECV Cyclo-Cross in Gloucester to take part in the 2nd round of the Verge New England Cyclo-Cross Series. Lining up for the men's and women's elite races were the same, remarkable fields as the day before in the Central Mass. Cyclo-Cross, giving riders the opportunity to make up for missed chances and poor luck, as they raced for the podium in the UCI Cat. 2 race. Dunlap DominatesIf the race from the day before had left any doubt as to who the strongest rider in the elite women's field was, today's race put them to rest. In a field featuring no less than five current or former national champions, Alison Dunlap put on a true tour de force. The race off the start line was fierce, as the riders vied for the lead into the first corner. Gina Hall (Clif Bar) was the first rider to attack when she went off on her own midway through the first lap. Meanwhile, her teammate Carmen D'Aluisio adopted a defensive strategy, keeping an eye on Alison Dunlap (Luna Bar) and Anne Knapp (Kona), while Mary McConneloug (Seven Cycles) appeared to have recovered from her poor ride the day before and was right up with the leaders. Near the end of the second lap, Dunlap unleashed a ferocious attack that the others were unable to respond to. She quickly bridged up to Hall, and just as quickly rode by her. Before long, D'Aluisio and McConneloug had bridged up to Hall, dropping Knapp in the process. As Dunlap soloed to her second consecutive win on the weekend, Hall had fallen off the pace of the three chasers, leaving the race for second place down to a sprint, which was won by D'Aluisio. McConneloug claimed a stellar third place on the podium, followed by Hall for fourth and a fast-closing Knapp for fifth. Her podium finished meant that McConneloug retained the leader's jersey in the Verge NECCS. Same Pair, Different ResultOn a day which featured the deepest and most talented field of men's elite cyclo-cross racers assembled this season, any number of riders were in with a chance to claim victory. The tension was thick at the start line, and the race for the first corner was furious. As the field hit the first run-up, Saturday's winner Ryan Trebon (CCA) was leading the field, with the rest of the favorites hot on his heels. By the end of the first lap, a select leading group of five riders had broken off of the front, including Todd Wells (Mongoose/Hyundai), Trebon, Jackson Stewart and Andy Jacques-Maynes (Clif Bar), and Mark McCormack (Saturn). Behind them Marc Gullickson (Redline) was riding hard, trying to make the connection. It didn't take long for Trebon and Wells to ride off the front of the lead group, and the race settled into the same rhythm as the day before, as each took turns at the front, waiting for a mistake from the other. Behind them, McCormack had his hands full racing against the two Clif Bar teammates, as Stewart and Jacques-Maynes both took turns trying to bridge up to the two leaders. Up front, as the two leaders crossed the start/finish line for the bell lap, Trebon laid down a hard attack, instantly gapping Wells. But, only moments later, as Trebon flew through the course's tough corkscrew turns, he rolled his front tire. Wells was left alone to ride to the win, as Trebon was passed by both chase groups to eventually finish in ninth after having run nearly half a lap. The sprint for second was a photo finish, won by Stewart over McCormack. Jacques-Mayne claimed fourth, and Gullickson rode home for fifth. Peter Wedge (Kona) led home the second chase group, in front of Travis Brown (Trek) and Dale Knapp (Kona). With his fifth place, Gullickson narrowly held onto the leader's jersey in the Verge NECCS. In the junior's race, the trio of Tucker Thomas (Rad Racing), Jamey Driscoll (GMBC/Invensys), and Konrad Lebas (Richard Sachs) were leading the field, when Driscoll suffered a mechanical for the second straight day, but recovered in time to re-catch the leaders. He went on to win the race by a clear margin, while Lebas finished second and Thomas third. Other winners on the day included John Verheul (Cycle-Smart) in the masters 35+ race, Scott Wade (Gearworks/Spin Arts) in the 45+, and Cory Burns (winner the day before as well) in the Amateur men's race. Round 3 of the 2003 Verge New England Championship Cyclo-Cross Series will be the UCI Cat 3 Cycle-Smart International Cyclo-Cross, held on Sunday, Nov. 16 in Northampton, Mass.
