Kenosha Velosport wrap-up II
2010
The weather was dodgy on Saturday but improved enough by Sunday that racing was a go in Pleasant Prairie, Wis.
Chazz Martin (ISCorp) had the most noteworthy day. After winning his juniors race, he placed 4th in the 3’s and then won the field sprint for 2nd in the 1/2’s, ahead of Tomasz Boba (WDT-Allvoi).
Tim Speciale (Psimet) won the 4’s in a bunch sprint, the first victory for that new squad. Patrick Limanowicz (XXX Racing-AthletiCo) slipped away late in the 5’s to win there, his second win in as many outings. (The 4’s and 5’s raced separately this week and will do so again at Sunday’s finale.)
Chicago did well in the masters races: Marek Serafin (PACT/Dish Network) continued to show his notorious Kenosha form by winning out of a break in the 40+ while Wayne Simon (Verdigris) and Richard Kreutzfeldt (PACT/Dish Network) took the 50+ and 55+, respectively.
Elsewhere, Mike Sherer picked up the first podium for Verizon u25 by placing 3rd at the Brown County Road Race in Nashville, Ind. Jake Teitelbaum (Iron Cycles) placed 2nd in the 3’s and Gina Romero (XXX Racing-AthletiCo) won the women’s 4’s race.
Full Kenosha results. Full Brown County results.
Kenosha Velosport race reports
Debbie Dust (PACT/Dish Network; 40+): “That was the race, right there. I watched as five other guys jumped up the left side and made it across, while I sat there boxed in and helplessly screwed.”
Ed Hernandez (North Branch; 3): “My intent today was to smack the legs around with a meat tenderizer and reap the rewards later in the season.”
Peloton Star: “Martin exploded with the power he developed racing at the Kenosha Velodrome to take the win.”
