Blue Sky Velo Cup: "Haunted Cross", October 31st at Xilinx Campus, Longmont Colorado
Katie Compton (Planet Bike) and Tim Johnson, Jeremy Powers and Jamey Driscoll (Cannondale-Cyclocrossworld.com) pulled out no tricks but took the top treats at the Blue Sky Velo Cup in Longmont, Colorado Saturday.
After snow blanked the state, the sun made a late season cameo appearance. `Cross fans were treated to mud and a display of some of the best racers in the world. Compton demonstrated why she is leading the UCI circuit now, and the elite women’s race quickly became a contest for second as Compton turned the race into a dirt time trial. The Luna Chix duo of Georgia Gould and Alison Dunlap swept up second and third. Meredith Miller (California Giant Berries) put her road skills to the test for fourth. Mountain biker Kelli Emmett (Giant) rounded out the top five.
As Johnson and Powers began to build a lead in the elite men’s race, the two were also jockeying for who will take over the NACT leader’s jersey after the Boulder race Sunday. Johnson dropped his teammate, but with Powers holding on for second and teammate Jamey Driscoll in third, Sunday’s race will decide who pulls on the red jersey Sunday afternoon. Adam Craig (Giant), always entertaining, put in a good show to take fourth while Troy Wells (Clif Bar) was fifth.
