Nestor Cup Training Series

Savannah (GA), USA, April 9, 2000

Welcome to the first edition of the Nestor Cup 2000. Round One was held at Hunter Army Air Field. Four laps of the ten 10 mile course showed a lot of promise, and the first round of the Cup is always fast. The average speed of the race was a little over 23mph. But we will get to that later.

The first lap started out like most of us expected,... fast. The first one to launch an attack was wearing last year's leaders jersey. Wes is pretty proud of adding that one to his palmares. Still, it must be tough to be a marked man because nobody would let him get away. Charles led us up the hill, and I would like to add that he stood up the whole way and was pushing a pretty big gear. Not a brutal attack, but definitely a tester. Everything stayed together and Johnny led us across the line at the end of the lap.

The second lap saw tons of attacks. Johnny and Michael Mathers got away and, instead of being gentlemen and helping to bring it all back together, Wes and Charles just counter attacked and joined them. Well we brought them back and somebody let Johnny drift off the front again. Why do we keep letting him do that?

Naturally Charles and Wes jumped and joined him. They held it, and were able to go for the Green Jersey sprint. Wes took first and Charles & Johnny got 2nd and 3rd. The pack was managing to close the gap, just not fast enough to be in contention for the points.

Everything came together and the third lap was a bit more intact. There were still attacks, but everybody had already learned the "Don't Cause Gaps" lesson, so at least it was an educational ride. As we got ready for the final lap, you could tell who was feeling it. You could tell who was cool with a sprint finish and who would rather try to do an Ekimov or Tchmil and get away at the end. So the last lap was very different than the others.

No brutal attacks from Wes and Charles and nobody would let Johnny get away. But this opened the door for others to try. John Baggett, Mike Maynor, John Skiljan and some others rolled away, but were swiftly brought back. It was kind of neat because we had the full pack of about 20 riders coming toward the hill, but I guess recovering from a crash can alter your tactics because I wanted to get out of this bunch.

Coming up the hill it started out as a single pace line. About half-way up, it turned into two lines and started to slow down a bit. I got to the front right at the top of the hill and tried to jump away. It felt good for about thirty seconds, but I couldn't go any faster and I wasn't going to stay away at that speed. So I just joined in the pace line. It is hard to write about the last kilometer, because so many things were going on. I got on Nestor's wheel, because he usually picks a good wheel to follow. But the single lane sprint gets pretty hairy and the wheel you're following doesn't always stay the same.

Coming up to the "S" turn, it started to slow down right as I was getting to the front, so I tried again and it felt good for a few seconds. Maybe I just need some more interval training. But I was unhappy to see the first person to catch me was the Yellow jersey, and nobody was pulling around, just waiting and waiting for the right time.

With about 300 meters to go, the sprint finally started. Charles took it by about 20 yards. Mike Maynor pulled in second and Sean got third. Then Statesboro took 4th-8th with Chad, Michael, John, Nick and Wes. Russ Beasely got 9th and Mack got 10th. The next cup is the Brooklet ride at 280 and I-16 on May 7th. We have rough maps now and you can get a pamphlet from Nestor that has all of the important information.
