Cadence Cup #1 2/28/09

2009-03-05T08:54:00.004-05:00

The first local race of the year is complete and our team had a great showing! Kai and Lucca raced the 50 person cat 5 event and in the 110 person Pro123 event in attendence were Cleaver, Bencivengo, Marszalek, Hall and Sommerville.

Taduesz Marzalek is the SPRINT Leader of the series! Taduesz took the 2nd sprint and KOM which earned him the sprint jersey.

Great job, Todd, this result is OUTSTANDING!!!

Brett Cleaver ALSO scored points in the 1st Sprint Lap and is currently fourth overall. Brett was active all day as part of ALL the important breakaways, including the final one caught in the last 250 meters!

Kai's father, David Perez Shadi, was present with his lens that morning and took some amazing photos. He has graciously posted them all here- http://www.shadinyc.com/proofs/prospect/

Here are a few highlights.

Race report:
Guys went fast, a whole bunch of Pros showed up late and messed up the whole dynamic of the race when they jumped in. But hey, how often can you ride(race) with guys who won stages in The Giro, Tour De France, Veulta Espania, some Spring Classics??
Oh, a few Olympic medals and numerous national titles too
