Thanks to your previous correspondent Rodney Hsu for attempting to get B.C. in the news, unfortunately the story and some results were somewhat off base.

Road Race September 5th, 1999

Elite Men, 125km

Some details of the previous report are correct. The six man break that was the main feature of the race included Sean Dawson, Paul Henderson, Brumo Nella and Andrew Kyle, but not eventual winnder Luca Segato. A rapid 3 man chase saw Dawson's Trek/VW team mates Min Van Velzen and Jesse Keefer plus Segato bridge the 2 minute gap at 95km. Henderson tried a solo move off the front, but was caught then Nella attacked with 2km to go but was passed 100m
from the line.

1. Luca Segato, Nutrafig 3:18:17
2. Bruno Nella, Nella
3. Min Van Velzen, Trek/VW
4. Paul Henderson, Escap Velocity
5. Jesse Keefer, Trek/VW all s.t.
6. Sean Dawson, Trek/VW at 1:01
7. Andrew Kyle s.t. - 1st espoir
8. Bryce McCallum, Campione at 3:13

* Jesse Keefer clinched the 1999 B.C. Road Cup with his 5th place.

Senior Women, 95km

After 60km, the three favourites, Sara Neil, Leah Goldstein and Darnelle Moore were alone in the lead. An interesting trio, all very fit, Goldstein just back from the Tour de France Feminin, obviously recovered well having won the previous day's time trial, Neil and Moore just back from G.P. Feminin in Quebec, but Sara the 1988 Olympian, racing again this year, had been there as a Canadian team manager. Moore and Goldstein tried to drop Neil, the best sprinter, on many climbs but she was never in difficulty and on the last hill, at 13km to go she stayed with Goldstein's attack as Moore
lost contact. They then shared the work, flying to the finish in their big gears where Neil won the sprint, adding her name to trophy she last won in 1985, her first year of racing.

1. Sara Neil, Trek/VW 2:45.25
2. Leah Goldstein, Physical Fitness s.t.
3. Darnelle Moore, Soliton/Texana Rice at 1:52
