Redemption for Dionne and Webcor

Although the highly anticipated presence of Lance Armstrong didn't happen at this year's edition of the T-Mobile International as the six-time Tour De France champion was forced out from tendonitis in his knee, the fourth running of the tough race across the hilly streets of San Francisco was once again an unqualified success. Huge crowds estimated at a half-million saw a dramatic chase like a scene from Bullitt unfold as two teams, USPS-Berry Floor and Webcor Builders chased down the race's solo leader in a dramatic nail-biter that left the outcome up in the air until just 4km to go.

With 40km to go in this year's T-Mobile International in San Francisco, CA., it looked like Health Net's Jason McCartney was running away with the race as he entered the five final laps of 8km that included the short and steep ascent of Taylor Street. As the 2004 Olympian entered the final five laps, the flying Iowan was over four minutes ahead of a fractured chase, but McCartney had been out front in a break all day and was starting to slow on the tough bumpy streets of San Francisco. After a strong chase in the final by last year's T-Mobile International champion Chris Horner and USPS-Berry Floor, led by George Hincapie and Chechu Rubiera, it was finally Horner's teammate and 2002 T-Mobile champ Charles Dionne that made a brilliant counterattack on the final lap to catch and pass the fading McCartney and ride to a dramatic solo win. Dionne, from St. Redempteur, Quebec won two years ago in a sprint but this time, the tough guy from north of the border left nothing to chance.

After the race, Dionne told Cyclingnews, "With five laps to go, the gap [to McCartney] was still big but we managed to close the gap. I felt great and when I saw [McCartney] up the road, I knew it was the right time to go. Chris [Horner] encouraged me and told me I could win and I was happy to take his advice. I'm really happy to be able to bring this win to Webcor today; it's the second year in a row. This morning when I got up, I told myself 'you are Charles Dionne and you are going to win the T-Mobile today'... so I'm really happy." Last year's winner, Dionne's teammate Chris Horner, was instrumental in setting up the win for his fellow Webcor man. After the exultant Webcor team embraced in celebration post race, the always quotable Chris Horner told Cyclingnews, "I could see that Charles was fantastic on the Taylor Street climb and I told him 'you gotta do it', so then I got on the front with Ekimov for two laps to pull McCartney back, then with Rubiera. On the last lap, we could see McCartney right there and so I just punched it." Once Horner closed the gap on the fading Health Net rider, Dionne made a textbook counterattack and no one could follow him the last time up Taylor Street hill.

Runner-up today was local guy and USPRO champ Fred Rodriguez (Aqua Sapone-Caffe Mokambo) who extricated himself on the last lap in pursuit of the flying Dionne, but Fast Freddy just wasn't fast enough today. Perhaps if Rodriguez hadn't crashed hard with 55km to go at Broadway and Embarcadero, breaking a wheel and scraping his left leg, the outcome would have been different today. "I crashed on that turn coming into the Embarcadero as we came around with one big lap to go (after 125km) and broke my rear wheel," said Rodriguez. "I had to chase hard to get back and after that, I hurt my leg and couldn't even feel it on the climb." But Rodriguez had a nice consolation prize today; his second place points were enough to clinch the title as ProCyclingTour champion for 2004. "I'm very happy to be PCT champion and now I'm going back to Italy to get ready for the World Championships."

Fred finished 8 seconds ahead of his best friend George Hincapie of USPS-Berry Floor, who took the group sprint from 8 riders for third ahead of Jelly Belly-Aramark's talented Aussie Ben Brooks. Hincapie told Cyclingnews, "Chechu [Rubiera] and I were the protected riders today but in the finale, Chechu ended up working for me. I'm not super-fresh now, but I wanted to win today... it's been a long year but I just didn't have it in me today." Riding his last race in USPS-Berry Floor colors, Hincapie reflected on his time as one of the Posties with the most. "This is my last race for the season and I've got a break now. I'm looking forward to it! It's been a great time with the US Postal Service as our sponsor; it's going to be sad to see them go. They've given me so much throughout the last eight years and I really couldn't have asked for a better sponsor. I was just sorry I couldn't win for them today." Hincapie will be looking forward to November, when he and his companion Melanie are expecting a baby girl.

Perhaps Jason McCartney was listening to David Bowie sing "we could be heros, just for one day" on his iPod before the T-Mobile International today, as his heroic ride today came just 4km short of the biggest win of his career today in San Francisco. It's been a big year in 2004 for the likeable Iowan; after a breakthrough stage win in the Tour De Georgia, McCartney won the Olympic Trials in June and earned a trip to Athens for the Men's Road Race. Today as McCartney sat waiting to get his $10,000 check for winning the Subaru KOM prize, the tired Health Net-Maxxis rider explained, "I was sorry that it just didn't work out today... my teammates worked really well for me and when I attacked, if Doug [Ollenrenshaw] could have been a little stronger, it would have helped, I knew I needed as much time as I could get going into the final lap. I started to feel the wind pick up [along the Embarcadero] in the finale and that hurt me too, trying to fight it. I knew they were going a lot faster than me behind and it was tough to hang on. I was looking back part way up Taylor Street on the final climb and could see [Dionne] coming and I said 'oh here we go'. He went by me so fast. But I am happy I was able to win the KOM prize... it's been an unbelievable year for me; it's been great on [Health Net] this year; Gord [Fraser] and the other guys just get you so motivated."

Riding one of his final races in Rabobank colors, Santa Rosa resident Levi Leipheimer enjoyed racing in front of his home town crowd today. Leipheimer told Cyclingnews, "I felt good today, and I figured that McCartney was strong and thought for sure he would win... I wanted to make a little show so I attacked solo with 40km to go and hoped that they wouldn't get organized behind, but they did. Now I head back to Italy for Coppa Sabbatini, Giro dell'Emilia and Trofeo Beghelli and then my season is over. I'm looking forward to heading to Gerolsteiner next season. I still have to sit down and figure out my program with the team management, but maybe the Tour De France and Vuelta next year."

How it unfolded

With San Francisco's heat wave over, the morning dawned cool and overcast as Lance Armstrong fired the starter's gun for the T-Mobile International, Presented By BMC Software. After three initial laps of a 2.1km circuit lap on The Embarcadero, the parcours headed across the streets of San Francisco for nine laps of a 14.2km loop including Fillmore Street and Taylor Street climbs, then after 134.5km, the peloton tackled five laps of a hard 8km loop with the Taylor Street climb to total 174.5 km.

Beppe Palumbo (Aqua Sapone-Caffe Mokambo) made an early solo move on the first of and had a 20-second gap on the field. He was absorbed, but on the second big lap, the main escape of the day got away, with seven riders out front, including Danny Pate and Jason McCartney (Health Net-Maxxis), John Kelly and James Mattis (Webcor), Pavel Padrnos (USPS-Berry Floor), and Valerio Agnoli (Domina Vacanze). On the next big lap, a three more Health Net-Maxxis riders bridged across (John Lieswyn, Mike Sayers, Mike Jones), along with Dani Schnider (Phonak), Jeff Louder (Navigators Insurance), Doug Ollerenshaw (Jelly Belly-Aramark) and Massimo Ianetti (Domina Vacanze).

The gap between the tempoing break and tempoing peloton was never more than two minutes and never under one minute but as the penultimate large lap began, USPS-Berry Floor's Ekimov began to chase on the front. The gap began to drop and McCartney made his move on Chestnut Street on the final lap and only Ollerenshaw could follow. The Jelly Belly man had been climbing very well, winning most of the KOMs but when McCartney surged again a few kilometers later, Ollerenshaw was dropped on the final ascent of Fillmore. As McCartney crossed the finish line on the Embarcadero as the final five 8km circuits started, he had a minute and 15 seconds on Ollerenshaw and Four and a half minutes over the peloton. USPS-Berry Floor cranked up the chase pace behind as McCartney slowly began to fade.

With 24km and three laps to race, McCartney had 2:23 on Domina Vacanze's 19 year old stagiaire Valerio Agnoli who was chasing solo out of the remains of the breakaway, with Levi Leipheimer at 3:30 and the peloton at four minutes. With only two laps to go, McCartney was still out front but the peloton was lead by the runaway blue train of USPS. Agnoli had been absorbed and the gap was just three minutes and falling fast. Horner teamed up with Eki and Chechu to crank the pace up and when Dionne saw McCartney just up the road at the base of the final ascent of Taylor Street hill, he bid adieu to the rest of the T-Mobile International peloton and Jason McCartney and rode to a superb solo win on the streets of San Francisco.
