Dickey wins again, White breaks through

Mackenzie Dickey (Verge) won the elite women's even in the same fashion as Matt White - solo-style! Her main competition was a three-woman chase containing Rebecca Wellons (Gearworks), Amy Wallace (Richard Sachs) and Betsy Shogren (Fort Factory).
Dickey blew away her competition from the start gaining a significant lead over the field almost instantaneously. "I had the same game plan today as I did yesterday," Dickey said. "I had a great start and tried to open the gap and hold it. I just kept it going and it worked all the way to the end."
"Although I love sprinting, it is always nice when you come to the finish with a gap and you don't have to worry about a sprint - I'd take that any day of the week."
The circuit seemed to suit Dickey perfectly as she made the win look effortless. "The course really suits my ability with a nice mix of technical sections and some flat power stretches," Dickey said. "I like the hard ride up and the run up too. It was a really hard course but I could cost up part of the run up by getting speed going into it. I also came into the barriers with some speed and it worked well for me."
The strong chase of three riders began to separate from each other as the race progressed. Rebecca Wellans struggled with a fumble over the barriers but later increase a lead over Amy Wallace to take second place. "The start was really fast but I knew that I didn't need to be on the front," Wellons said. "It was really windy on the lower section and I was happy being in fourth or fifth through that section. I went a little too hot into the barriers when I was chasing Mackenzie and crashed over them. Eventually I was able to make it back to Wallace and I stayed behind them in the wind for a while longer. I later passed them because I wanted to get to Mackenzie."
Amy Wallace and Betsy Shogren worked together until half a lap to go. Wallace attacked Shogren up the final climb gaining enough of a gap to secure third place. "Today was really hard and I am still gaining fitness and building that back. Hopefully my racing will get better over another month," Wallace said. "Wellons and I typically ride together a lot in races and we train together too. We have similar ability and fitness and work well together."
"I like to start the race fast and stay out of any messes, partly because I am usually the one causing the mess. But I like to be out in front for the start. I started to fall off of Wellons pace and fortunately I was able to ride with Betsy for a while. I remembered that she had been slower up the hill so I tried to get to the hill first and created a gap from there."
Dickey has successfully taken over the Verge New England Championship cyclo-cross leaders jersey and intends to hold onto it. "I am going to try to hold onto the Verge New England Championship cyclo-cross Series jersey for as long as I can," Dickey said. "Lyne Bessette is an awesome competitor and I am sure she will have her A-game with her in Sterling, when we meet again. Hopefully I will be able to gain a few more points before then. I was third in the Verge Series last year and my goal is to improve on that this year."
White solos to victory
|
Matt White (Fiordifrutta) showed the elite men how to win a race off the front, soloing from the gun. White crossed the line thirty seconds ahead of Davide Frattini (Colavita Olive Oil/Sutter Home), caught racing in limbo after an attempt to bridge across to the winner. Johannes Huseby (Fiordifrutta) scooped up third place by winning a sprint over Mark McCormack (Clif Bar).
It was riders ready, go, and Matt White attacked the field. "I was really fired up from yesterday's tactical finish and that fueled me for the start today," White said. "Yesterday was really tactical and my brain hurt a little from that. I wanted to start harder today and thin the group out as soon as possible. I had no idea that I was going to be off the front the entire race, solo."
White shocked his competitors and fans today in his leading performance. "It was motivating for me because of my hometown crowd," White said. "Everyone I knew was here watching, all my friends and family."
"It was really tough today and it seemed to take so long. With nine laps to go I felt like I had been out there for half an hour already. Although I had the race dialed down this morning, I didn't go into it saying it was a super good course for me, but with in the first two laps I knew that I was doing just fine on it. I felt like the opening four laps were the fastest and after that I had to struggle to hold on to my gap. But no matter how I felt, good or bad, my time splits were the same each lap. I felt like I had a really steady hour of racing."
|
Fiordifrutta took full advantage of their two riders in the original eight-man chase after White. The group was stacked with cyclo-cross specialist like Mark McCormack, Davide Frattini, Johnny Sundt (Hagens Berman), Luca Damiani (FIDIBC), Adam Myerson (Nerac-Outdoorlights.com), Matt Kraus (Alan Factory) and Whites two teammates Michael Cody and Johannes Huseby.
"I am sure my teammates were back there jamming things up for me and I was happy that they were able to ride such a tactical race for themselves with a strong finish," White said. "I could see them from a corner back and it was fun to watch them play their tactics on each other. I could see them attacking and chasing."
There were several attempts to bridge to White and all riders in the chase took a pull at one point or another. Davide Frattini was able to create a gap on the chase but did not have the legs to connect with White. "Matt rode the first two laps really hard at a fast tempo," Frattini said. "I tried to go early but was not able to bridge to him and the chase group caught me. The Fiordifrutta guys did some good teamwork. Cody would take the turns at the front to slow down the group and in general they played with good tactics to give the possibility to Matt to build his gap further. But, Matt was so strong and he was able to hold this gap for the whole race."
Team tactics seemed to play a major role in the outcome of the race and each podium rider benefited from the help of their teammates. "There were eight riders in the chase group and almost everyone did a good pull but we were not catching Matt," Frattini said. "Luca Damiani was in the group with me and I jumped on the run up with five laps to go. Basically, Luca did the same tactic with me that Cody and Huseby did for Matt."
Luca Damiani admits his hand in Frattini's successful gap over the chase. "I helped to control the chase group for Davide," Damiani said. "When he gained five seconds on my group I looked at the situation and went to the front. I pulled hard enough so no one would attack me but slow enough to let Davide's gap grow."
The chase group began to dwindle as the race progressed until Mark McCormack and Johannes Huseby found themselves alone together in a battle for third. "Mark put in a few really strong attacks and no one else could stay with him except for me," Huseby said. "I recognized that there were a few spots on the course where Mark was trying to make his move and it became predictable. I also knew that there were some areas that I was a little bit stronger than him and I figured I could respond well to him."

The two powerhouses riders approached the finishing sprint together lead out by McCormack and won by Huseby. "I never tried to get away from Mark and I knew it was going to be a tough battle in the sprint," Huseby said. "I have been in a sprint many times with Mark and have only been capable of beating him a few times. He definitely has the upper hand in a sprint and I did not know what to expect."
"Even though he was doing a lot of work today, I never count him out. He went a little slower into the last straight, which played into my advantage. If he had really gassed it in that section I would have been in a lot more trouble. But because I had something left in the tank I was able to win the sprint this time."
Whites win today placed him on the podium for a second time as leader of the Verge New England Championship Cyclo-cross Series. "I never would have imagined being in the leaders jersey at the beginning of the season," White said. "There are so many more races left and I am going to try to hold onto it. Mark is always going to be a tough competitor. I have a lot more racing in the New England area and I will try to hold on to my fitness for another month - for the national championships as well."
