2012 Rosewood Series II Race IV

Miami Lakes,  FL. June 17h., 2012.

*40+ On the sprinter’s white jersey, J Armas kept it by getting three more points at the 4th race of the series; now he has nine points follow by M Maharahj with five. Strong break formed by J Rodriguez, S Mlujeak, N Gonzalez and G Ferrer opened a good gap; but Bike America brought them back. Close final sprint gave victory to C Wright over C Ortiz; third place was for I Vera. On GC top two kept their positions, Robinson with 17 points and Reeves with 13; but Ortiz and Wright are now tie on points with Reeves.
*50+ Most of the race the pack kept it together. Three riders fighting for the white jersey gave us two nice sprints. S Wood by getting four points kept his sprinter’s jersey, followed by C Rosenthal two points behind. In a solo R Hurtado won the race, the bunch had a close sprint taken by P Aldridge; and for third place we had W Martinez. The surprise of the day was that Valle lost the yellow jersey, and now Wood is the current leader.
*Pro Y Tsang could not get any points and lost his white jersey, new sprinter’s leader now is G Rodriguez that from an early break took six points. It did not take more than two laps to bunch to bring back the breakaway at the end of the race. For the final sprint, L Martinez wins the race followed by L Zayas and third place was for O Marin. The interesting point here is that Bello kept his yellow jersey and second and third places are for his team mates Tsang and Henao respectively.
*4&5 An early break that ends up lapping the field gave six points to C Sosa to take the sprinter’s jersey from I Daniel. The final sprint was for J Rodriguez followed by C Sosa and C Castellanos to complete podium positions. The General classification maintains unchanged, L Cristia in yellow followed by his team mates C Sosa and E Ortiz.
