Verge NECCS Round 3: Results and Report Clif Bar Riders Dominate the Podium Again A perfect day for cyclo-cross greeted the riders and fans for the 13th annual Cycle-Smart International, this year at a new venue in Northampton, Massachusetts. This was third round of the Verge New England Championship Cyclo-Cross Series, and for the second day in a row, Clif Bar was the team to beat in both the men�s and women�s elite races. Stewart Claims His First UCI Elite Victory The pace in the men�s elite race was electric from the start, as riders exploded onto the terribly steep, pine-needle ride-up, with all of the big names right at the front. Midway through the first lap Clif Bar�s Jackson Stewart attacked and was followed by Ronnie Poelvoorde (Duratec-Zewietes). A chase group including Verge NECCS leader Marc Gullickson (Redline), Todd Wells (Mongoose/Hyundai), and Andy Jacques-Maynes (Clif Bar) was close behind them, and gradually reeled them in over the next two laps. Stewart continued to keep the pace high, but it was Gullickson who persisted with a series of attacks resulting in Poelvoorde being the first rider to drop from the lead group. Meanwhile, a chase group containing Ben Jacques-Maynes (Family Cycling Center), Mark McCormack (Saturn), Jeremy Powers (NCC/BikeReg.com), Jesse Anthony (Hot Tubes), Bart Bowen (Kona) and Bart Gillespie (Team Biogen) was working hard behind, but not making up any time on the leaders. With four laps to go, Gullickson put in a hard attack through the start-finish area, and rode solo in the lead for a lap before being caught, at which point Todd Wells and Jackson Stewart counter-attacked, leaving Andy Jacques-Maynes and Gullickson behind. Coming into the final set of barriers on the last lap, it was down to just Wells and Stewart, and Wells pulled out the big attack, bunny-hopping the uphill barriers in an attempt to drop Stewart. But Stewart responded, and the race came down to a sprint finish, that was easily won by Stewart. Andy Jacques-Maynes won the sprint for third, with Gullickson finishing fourth, and Poelvoorde rounding out the top five. Jeremy Powers was the top under-23 finisher in ninth place. D'Aluisio and Hall Put On a Clinic From start to finish, the women�s elite race was a Clif Bar affair. By the end of the first lap a lead trio containing Verge NECCS leader Mary McConneloug (Seven Cycles), Carmen D�Aluisio and Gina Hall (Clif Bar) had gone off the front. While the Clif Bar duo took turns at the front, McConneloug was taking some chances, and sprinted off the front a few times in an effort to disrupt the duo�s teamwork. But, after a couple laps of this, D�Aluisio and Hall put the hammer down, eventually dropping McConneloug. After that, it was all Clif Bar, as the two kept the pace high, and worked smoothly together all the way to the finish, when D�Aluisio outsprinted Hall for the win. It was her second UCI victory in two days, and the teammates second 1-2 finish in two days. Behind them, Marianne Stover (Gearworks/SpinArts) was having an exceptional ride and caught McConneloug midway through the race. The two battled neck and neck for the final podium spot, which McConneloug won with a late attack on the last lap. Jamey Driscoll (GMBC/Invensys), the current Verge NECCS Junior leader, won the junior race in style, as he attacked the lead group with two laps to go and rode solo all the way to the finish. The win was his second consecutive Verge series victory, and solidified his place in the overall standings. Clif Bar's Rich Maile won the Masters 35+ race, helped by Verge NECCS leader John Verheul�s (Cycle-Smart) crash in the sand-pit halfway through the last lap. Verheul�s second place meant that he kept the NECCS leader�s jersey. Other winners on the day included Tim Groesbeck in the Masters 45+, Ben Harper in the Amateur Men�s, Jenn Magur in the B Women�s, Greg Pelican in the B Masters, and Adam Ring in the C Men�s.
