Snelling Road Race Snelling, CA (February 22)

The race was held just outside Merced CA, covering parts of the NRC race course that will be held there later in the season. It's a rolling course, open to the wind. Last weekends race had a breeze which kept the race in the gutter. Klasna, Faulkner, and McGovern broke away with 4 km left, after chases from Health Net and Webcor teams saw the peloton dwindle from 125 to 35 riders by the last of 6 laps.
