Lou Maltese Memorial
Central Park, NYC, July 10, 2004
By John Tomlinson, Century Road Club Association
|
Beautiful weather greeted riders for the 2004 Lou Maltese Memorial Race held in New York City's Central Park on July 10. The event is named in honor of local racing pioneer Lou Maltese.
In the juniors and espoirs race, a break of four got away early. One rider dropped off, leaving espoirs Andrew Guptill and Lee Rosenthal of CRCA/Sakonnet Technology and Lisban Quintero of Cuevas out front and gaining almost a minute on the field. All three had raced the pro-1-2 field at the Fitchburg-Longsjo Classic the previous weekend, with Quintero getting an outstanding 4th on a stage there. The Cuevas rider resisted attacks from the Sakonnet pair to win. The juniors largely stayed together in the field, with Kirk Carlsen of New Hampshire's Heart of New England CC first junior over the line.

In the women's race, Brooke Wilson of Somerset Wheelman repeated the powerful sprint she had demonstrated in the criterium at Fitchburg, beating out Ellen Moses of CRCA/Foundation (in her first race as a 3) and Jane Berger CRCA/Aquafina. The CRCA/Aquafina team organizes the Aquafina NY State Women's 3/4 Race Series, of which this race was round 3. The first category 4 woman was Hannah Long of CRCA/Sanchez/Metro who was actually second woman over the line - all women and girls raced together. Nina Santiago of Liberty Cycle was first junior girl.
After some short-lived breaks the men's 4 race came down to a field sprint showdown between two riders who have been dueling all season -- Anthony "Ricky" Lowe of CRCA/VisitBritain and Lorenzo Cavallaro of CRCA/Merrill Lynch/Stelvio Teamwear, with Lowe getting a great lead out from his team to win.
The next big event in Central Park will be the Mengoni Grand Prix for elite riders on September 25.
