The race course, held in a rural pocket of this burgeoning community, was half rolling hills and half pancake flat, favoring breakaways. A generous prize purse attracted riders from all over the southeast for the Pro, 1,2,3 Men's field, and the racing was aggressive from the very first lap. Local Masters National and former Master's World Road Race Champion David LeDuc (Mercy) and Ryan Blickem were the first to breakaway on lap one. The two quickly opened up a 30 second gap, and hovered there for three laps before being joined by six other riders including LeDuc's teammate Randy Parker, also a Masters National Champion. Even with reinforcements, the breakaway could not extend their lead from the field, and with three laps remaining, the peloton was back together again. LeDuc tried again to get away, but wasn't able to hold off the pack, and with two laps to go, it appeared as if the race would come down to a bunch sprint. However, when the bell rang for the last lap, Thad Dulin (Colavita Bolla) and Hatcher Rosebrock (Cycles de Oro) took advantage of a slight lull in the pace to attack hard and by the time the pack decided to chase, the two had built a 25 second advantage. Dulin forced Rosebrock to the front with two kilometers left to race, and after a brief rest attacked his companion and soloed in the last kilometer for the win. Ryan Trebon (Krystal) and Joseph Stone (WV Go Mart) escaped the field to take third and fourth, then Ben Faulk of Easton/ClifBar won the field sprint. In the women's race, an early breakaway consisting of duathlete Patty Shoaf (Hammergel), Laura Weislo (Spin Cycle/TRO) and Kathleen Gleason (Tri-Cyclists BRC) dissolved in an extended game of cat and mouse with two kilometers to go, and the race came back together. In the end, Shoaf won the field sprint over Amber Kreiger (Cycling Spoken Here) and Laura Weislo.
