Topsport Stage Race - Podium!

Emily spent the weekend racing in Copperopolis, Ca. at the first annual Topsport Cycling Copperopolis Stage Race. She started Saturday morning with the 10 mile Rock Creek Time Trial, where she finished 3rd behind Metromint's time trial expert Molly Van Houweling. Later Saturday afternoon EEK won the Little John Circuit race, gaining a 15 sec. time bonus.

Without any team having large numbers in the group, the dynamics of the Salt Springs Road Race made it difficult for Emily to gain any serious time on Molly. However, she rode smart and finished 2nd in the 69 mile event, gaining enough time to secure 2nd place in the final GC.
