John Bryan Classic (Zipp OVCX #9) - NE
Dayton, Ohio, November 9, 2008
Knapp takes revenge
The 9th stop of the Zipp OVCX Cyclocross Tour and the 6th race in the CapCity Cyclocross Series came to Yellow Springs, Ohio this weekend and brought with it the first taste of true cyclocross weather. As the mercury dipped into the upper 30's, and a light sprinkle of snow treated the spectators, the riders discovered a classic cyclocross course.
Designed by local cross legend Phil Noble, the BioWheels team put together a 1.3 mile parcours that included tight technical sections, wide open drags on open fields, flowing fast turns, the squiggles of pain, a short stint of smooth single-track in the woods, and of course--the Yurt of Hurt!
In the Women's A race, BioWheels very own Amanda McKay ran away with the win powered by her green striped leg warmers. It was not an easy won victory for the pint-sized powerhouse from Biowheels, as Julie Lewis Stroka came prepared to do battle--dressed in her CapCity Cross Series leaders jersey. Stroka and Bridget Donovan from the Columbus Trek Store made the race interesting and kept the pressure on McKay as they completed the podium.
On the men's side, Ryan Knapp exacted revenge after his stinging defeat of just one week earlier. He rode away from the men's field, leaving both Isaac Neff and Mike Purvis having to settle in for the bottom spots of the podium.
