RACE RESULTS

Hangover 6/29/2009

Mon, 06/29/2009 - 11:52am by schmalz

I'm at my e-perch, nibbling away at a little millet and trying to figure out what happened over the weekend at the races. There were a lot of them, and most do not have their results posted, so let's dwell on the positive and mention the races that have their results posted.

At the CRCA race, Lisban Quintero of Foundation won the A race; Alejandra Madrinan of Comedy Central won the women's race; Leszek Sniadowski of Organic won the B race; and Matt Hughes of NYAC won the C race. And if my calculations are correct, (taking mapmyride's Central Park distance at 6.35 miles and the race time at 1:45:34) the A race averaged 28.83 mph for 8 laps (which sounds a little off - if you have the park distance at 6.07, you get 27.56 mph). If you have a more accurate distance for the park, feel free to let us know. Results are here.

On Sunday at the Cadence Prospect Park Series, Sanchez Beriguetto of Ortiz Celado won the Pro/1/2/3 race at 1:36:46 – I have no idea what the average speed for that one is – as I am too lazy to calculate the speed for two races. Victor Polonia of Innovation Bike Shop won the cat 4 race, and David Gardiner of Kissena won the cat 5 race. Overall standings are here.

The Owasco Flyer results are in and posted here.

There are no results posted yet, but I know for a fact that Kevin Brubaker of Pacifico won the cat 3 race at the Keith Berger Memorial Crit.

Roger Aspholm won this race but got screwed by piss poor officiating and course marshalling. ALSO, there were 98 riders registered, with 8 no shows...90 riders started this race...not over 100. Aspholm attacked solo on the 2nd or 3rd lap, then was caught by a group and then that was reabsorbed a lap later. Then he chilled until attacking at the base of the only long hill (about 600m long with a ~4% grade??) 1 mile from the finish of the 5 mile loop coming into to go...so 16 miles to go in the 50 mile 10 lap race. Photos at www.dooleymann.photoreflect.com The lead break never got the bell, was shown 1 to go twice, was lead around a whole 11th lap by the lead motorcycle, was told by the motorcycle, they still had another lap, was not told by and official when they did miss the exit to the finish that they should turn around and go back...just lame. Roger was in a 4 man move then attacked that because they were taking shorter pulls, sitting up...you know Roger had that shit wrapped. Only 1 guy went with Rodg, and they had 13 seconds on the next 2. The guys who won and podiumed went from 2 miles out on the last lap...not close to the same league of race agression. I was in the race, and talked to Rodger.

Just over 100 riders took to the line in the 40-44 men’s road race making it the largest field of the competition. Mid-way through the 10-lap affair four riders, Roger Aspholm (Haworth, N.J./Westwood Velo), Nico Toutenhoofd (Boulder, Colo./Excelsports.com), David Harward (South Jordan, Utah/Porcupine-Specialized Racing) and David Henderson (Columbia, Mo.) were able to gain time on the field. As the contest moved into the final laps, a small group of chasers formed including Craig Romer (St. Helena, Calif./Team Specialized Racing), Stephen Spanbauer (Louisville, Ky./Calistoga Racing), Stephen Ferretti (Crestline, Calif./Sho-air-Sonace) and Daniel Casper (Northfield, Minn./Grandstay Hotels). They began slowly closing the gap but were unable to catch the leaders until some confusion ensued with the front group missing the turn into the finish. Tootenhoofd and Harward were able to quickly get turned around, but the chase group was surging. In the kick to the line Romer, Casper and Ferretti grabbed the medals in one of the event’s most interesting finishes. An officials’ jury was quickly formed and after thorough investigation, the results were deemed to stand as each rider crossed the line.

You think there are no transgendered riders there, but there are more than you think. With as much lycra as there is in bike racing did you expect otherwise? You can thank their surgeon for doing such a good job.

One has to wonder why the Burrowes attract so much negative attention. There are many strong aggressive riders in the area who don't attract as much negative attention. They might be great guys off the bike, I recall they were responsible for fixing some of the holes at FBF a couple years ago, but on the bike they are doing something that brings out the worst in some other racers.

I have nothing against the Burrowes or Gavin. I have something against people who settle some issue within a training race with their fists, and then who can't be calmed down for around 10 minutes after. I usually don't have any teammates or family at FBF, so if they decide to punch me, I've got no back up. Yeah I don't have to race FBF if I don't like asshole-ish behavior, but really is that the decisions we should have to make. Race with fights or race without. Stupid. Venture into the rec lane and you get banned. Punch somebody and you just have to say it's all cool afterwards.

And how do we know they have kissed and made up. We expect Bunde to come on here and fall on his sword but why aren't we asking for a mea culpa from the children involved in this incident??

MERCER SUSPENDED

US rider, Scott Mercer has been given a one year suspension by the USCF after the assault incident involving him and Adam Hodges Myerson last month. Myerson suffered damage to his skull after Mercer struck him in the head and was taken to hospital where he was operated on. He has since made a good recovery and even contested the US Criterium championships a few weeks back. Mercer was given an immediate 1 month suspension which was later increased to a year by the USCF board.

"why its always negative comments because they like to Win or is it ANOTHER REASON?" you are really on to something here...you are right! there is ANOTHER REASON...and that reason is throwing fists at a bike race. If you can not be thrown out of the Floyd Bennet series for having a fist fight...what does it take? I think of the constant reminders to stay out of the joggers lane and to ride safely or ELSE! So if I drift into the joggers lane I can get suspended. If I change my line during a sprint I can get suspended. But, If i take my fists and smash them into someone else's head...its cool as long as I apologize? Didn't a Mengoni rider almost kill Adam Myerson a few years back with one punch to the head? I'm sure Adam was "cool" with just an apology.

Tue, 06/30/2009 - 1:00pm

Until USAC officially announces a suspension, I think the pugilists are allowed to do as they damn well please. Unless Charlie bans them under his own discretion -- pretty sure the officials at FBF would back him up.

Kind of like a mini-Boonen situation.

try putting on a race
By: Wheelsucker
Tue, 06/30/2009 - 3:25am

All the guys complaining about Charlie should try putting on a race. It's more work than you imagine. There is a lot that has to happen before and after the race. Not mention the headaches you have to deal with during the race. Then think about getting to the course at least an hour before start time to make sure everything is set up properly.

While I doubt, and hope he isn't, working for free, he earns the money he makes. You should also compare the races he puts on to the ones put on by others at the same venues. You will notice Charlie does not have as many races as others. That means he makes LESS money. But he does that because he wants to keep the races safer.

You should count how many races Charlie promotes in NYC. He puts on a large percentage of them and if he gets fed up and quits, there will be a lot less racing

Charlie actually doesn't even take money for these races. His salary is paid for by a consortium of pro teams including Cervelo Test, Garmin, Milram and Columbia/Highroad, which want him to scout the local Prospect Park races for talent. Each week he sends the directors video of outstanding performances.

You should ask him about it.

@5:02
By: Wheelsucker
Mon, 06/29/2009 - 10:04pm

Maybe Kissena "handed" Charlie the races because promoting them is a pain in the ass, and good race promoters are a rare breed.

whether Charlie is making "nothing at all" or "very little" (more likely) as a race promoter, is irrelevant. If anything, it probably helps him promote Champ Sys, which is his day job.

I can't believe anyone would begrudge race promoters, especially good ones. Did it ever occur to you that there's a reason why there are several hundred NYC residents willing to get up at 5am to race, but only a handful willing to promote it?

By: Wheelsucker
Mon, 06/29/2009 - 9:02pm

Let's be serious -- makes nothing at all? Charlie's a great guy and runs great races, but he's not doing it as a charity. When Kissena handed its races to him, the club gave up any claim to any profits from the races, and the connection with Kissena is now just in name only (a fact not widely known by club members, who are pressed to help out at races for the good of the club, so helping Charlie's bottom line).

No, no, no you guys have it
By: Wheelsucker
Mon, 06/29/2009 - 6:10pm

No, no, no you guys have it all wrong. Charlie did pool the money from last week's race and put it into this week's race, with the exception of the two riders in the break who took the first two spots. Then on Sunday the additional money was added to the usual purse. He then broke it down in the money spots in accordance to whether or not you rode in last weeks race. Therefore people who rode last week got 100 percent of the cash if they top 10'd and those who did not race last week got 50 percent of the cash. Alternatively he also discounted the entry fee for those who raced last week but also gave 50 percent to these people. If you paid an additional ten percent he would also allow you to get 110 percent of the money from both this week and last week. He then took twenty percent as a 'promoters fee' since he reduced his fee because he did not give himself a fee for a payout last week, either. But he only took 50 percent of his full fee and not 100 percent. Next race he will pay himself 75 percent of the fee and riders will get 50 percent unless they did both races, in which case they get 100 percent. Or free entry to the final race of the year, which will pool all nine races.

Here's something to think about. Remember how last week's race was neutralized because of a crash? And how despite the fact that everyone probably wanted their money back Charlie assured us that (and I quote):

"The prize money for 3rd to 10th places in today’s race will be carried over to next’s weeks Cadence Cup Prospect Park race on Sunday, June 28."

Well, do you realize if you raced last week and raced this week that you essentially paid 60 dollars for the same prize money that someone who didn't race last week and raced yesterday only paid 30 for?

Not very fair if you ask me. Charlie, what say you? Discuss.
