*35+ Cold morning to open up 2014 season, this category gave us 26 riders to begin with, an early break that slowly but surely lap after lap increase the gap. Jose A Rodriguez racing for Rossetti took both intermediate springs to claim first sprinter’s jersey, followed by A Hulscher from Cool Beans Team. The final sprint between these two was for Rodriguez taken as well the yellow jersey. Field sprint to complete the podium was for C Wright from Performance Team.
*45+ & 55+ Both combined made the biggest bunch of the day, for many riders a good field to hide until the end. Many solo attempts at the beginning and end of the race that did not crystallize. Combining points for both intermediate sprints, we have J Armas with pink panthers taking the white jersey followed by G Potter racing for Graner-Stradalli just one point behind; he won the race taken the yellow jersey.
