Kyle Mendenhall of 3-Sport upset West Virginia Pro Cycling’s Wes Seigler to win last night’s 
24 mile Bryan Park Series A-Race. Seigler had been undefeated the three times he had ridden 
the series this season.

Most of the riders shrugged off the upset after the race. Most talked about a common-sense 
strategy to watch Seigler during the race.

At the end, with none of the earlier breakaways able to stay away, Seigler led the final lap.

“Wes moved wide in the final turn and let me in,” Mendenhall said. The two seemed more 
concerned about a work-out than about final results.

Richmond Ciclismo’s Matt Mega, Jon Gaudio and Matt Dinsmore pulled the rest of the thin 
field taking third, fourth and fifth.

Larry Lutz of Conte’s sprinted to the front of the 16 mile B-Race earlier last night. The 
steady fast pace forced most teams to think about how to finish in a final field sprint. 

Elvin Jefferson, an unattached Richmond rider, took the inside gap and sped for the finish 
line, not knowing that Lutz was close behind. Jefferson sat-up and finished second.

“He (Lutz) went by me and the whole time I thought I was 20 yards in front,” Jefferson said.

Many of the unattached riders, from Hanover County, in the B-Race train together and race as 
a team together. The teamwork paid Charles Goble with a third place. His cycling partner, 
Mark McCoy, led the final lap with Goble drafting close behind.

Matthew Marchal and James Revere, of Richmond Ciclismo, finished fourth and fifth. The 
Ciclismo B-Race riders consistently place someone in the top five every week but fail 
to get a winner.
