August 22/11 20:58 pm - USA Pro Cycling Challenge: Prologue


Posted by Editoress on 08/22/11
 

The 2011 USA Pro Cycling Challenge began today in Colorado Springs with an 8.3 kilometre prologue, and Team SpiderTech's Ryan Roth kick started this important stage race with a tenth place finish, just ten seconds behind winner Patrick Gretsch's (HTC Highroad) time of 8:27.

Team SpiderTech had a great day in this prologue, placing four riders within 30 seconds of the leading time. Team SpiderTech placed its top time trial riders early in the starting order, playing it safe in the face of some changing weather conditions. A great strategic move, since the weather deteriorated as the race went on.

Roth, a time trial specialist, finished only two seconds behind Tour de France winner Cadel Evans of BMC Racing.

SpiderTech's David Boily, a U23 rider, posted the fourth fastest time among the young riders.

The USA Pro Cycling Challenge includes eight UCI WorldTour teams, four Pro Continental teams (including Team SpiderTech powered by C10), and five Continental teams.
