Wachovia Cycling Series
USA, June 3-8, 2003
Wachovia Invitational: Lancaster, PA, 146km - 13 laps of 11.5km
By Tim Maloney, European editor
A Belgian-style kermesse that starts in the town of Lancaster in the heart of the Pennsylvania Dutch region, then heads out of town for the shot, steep hills in Conestoga Park, the Wachovia Invitational usually offers non-stop action. Last year, USPS rider David Clinger soloed home over Chris Wherry.
Clinger has changed squads to Prime Alliance for 2003 and after knee surgery; he is in form (winner of a tough Stage 2 circuit race in the recent Tour of Connecticut) and hoping to win at Lancaster. Clinger biggest challenge on Tuesday and all week may be will be from 1999 winner Jacob Piil, back with a powerful CSC team.
Watch out for Flanders-iteamNova's Belgian brothers Bert and Staf Scheirlinckx, who excel at this type of circuit. USPS has Michael Barry, who has always ridden well on this circuit and was 6th here last year.
