Colavita-Sutter Home earns overall win; Murphy takes the cash
By Kirsten Robbins in Fitchburg, Massachusetts
|
Winning the $1,500 gamblers prime with three laps to go seemed just a warm up for John Murphy (Health Net-Maxxis) who repeated his winning sprint for a second time to take the finale stage victory ahead of Emile Abraham (Team Type 1) and Alejandro Borrajo (Colavita/Sutter Home).
"They took me to the corner for the gamblers prime and all I had to do was get out of the last corner first because there was a tail wind," said stage winner John Murphy who memorized his plan of attack. "So, on the last lap all I had to do was do it again."
Another tough day in the saddle, lead to Kyle Wamsley and his Colavita/Sutter Home team-mates to enjoy the fruits of their labor when they solidified the overall victory of the Fitchburg Longsjo Classic Stage Race.
Wamsley maintained a 17 second advantage ahead of Justin Spinelli (Kelly Benefit Strategies- Medifast) and an additional 2 seconds ahead of Ted King (Bissell).
"I’m happy for the guys because they did so much work for me," said first time NRC stage race winner Kyle Wamsley.
Wamsley took the overall lead after stage two atop Mount Wachusett and continued to build his lead after he won stage three’s circuit race. "My team worked at the front of the race for the last three stages," said Wamsley. "They did a phenomenal ride for me and I really could not have done this with out them.
"I had an outstanding week of racing but it’s a real team effort it’s not just me. My guys were riding so strong the whole week and this race goes out to my Colavita/Sutter Home teammates."
Health Net started the stage race with four riders, further reduced due to mechanicals and accidents along the way. "We really wanted the gamblers prime going into today," Murphy explained.
"The stage win was important too but since we didn’t have anyone in the GC we wanted to go for the money."
How it unfolded
Colavita/Sutter Home had their work cut out for them at the start of the 55-lap, 90-kilometre finale criterium held in downtown Fitchburg. They had to work hard to not lose time on the multiple threatening GC riders, just seconds behind Wamsley.
A mixture of new faces and reshuffled break aways seemed to form every lap that included riders from Bissell, Team Type 1, Rite Aid, Batley-Harley Davidson, CRCA/Empire, Marxs & Bensdorf/Tristar and Toshiba.
However, the leading team remaining organized and focused on the task at had, bringing Wamsley to the line safe from threatening time gaps.

Despite accumulating a healthy lead in the points competition during stage two’s road race, Shawn Milne (Team Type 1) continued to battle Stefan Rothe (Marxs & Bensdorf/Tristar) for the last set of points needed to lock up the green jersey.
"We wanted to solidify the lead quickly and focus on the stage," said 2006 overall winner, Milne. "I thought I had a big enough lead the other day so that I wouldn’t have to worry about it but the other guys kept on trying for points."
"I won this jersey when I was 19 years old," continued Milne. "Back then I was elated to be wearing the green jersey and on the podium with riders like Henk Vogels. It’s cool to come back and get it again."
Race winner John Murphy and Patric Roessel (CCB-Volkswagen) were the two standout break away riders who, on separate occasions, gained twenty-seconds on the field for several lap solo flyers.
"The last ten laps were crazy and Ted King was really giving us a run for our money but my guys never gave up," said Wamsley regarding Bissell’s attempt to move third place rider Ted King up in the GC.
"I covered Ted Kings attacks in the last couple of laps and then just about tore my insides out trying to stay up there for the sprint and not to lose any time."
Runner up, Justin Spinelli remained relatively quietly sat in the field on the good chance that Colavita/Sutter Home would hold the field together, despite the relentless efforts of Ted King who wanted to gain time on the field.
"Today I followed Ted King around and tried to ride at the front as much as I could," said Spinelli who had no team-mates. "I definitely had a big advantage in the fact that Colavita wanted to keep the race together.
"I like to race for the win but today it was not realistic," continued Spinelli. "I’m happy with second and the way it worked out for me this week considering I was by myself."
With three laps to go the field was presented with a $1,500 gamblers prime. Race winner John Murphy ‘gambled’ the finale for the top cash prime, an effort that typically leads to the demise of the stage win.
Murphy proved that gambler’s prime theory wrong when he executed the exact same strategy for a second time to win the bunch sprint.
Cheatley victorious in Fitchburg; Pic dominates crit
|
US national criterium champion Tina Pic (Colavita/Sutter Home) did what she does best when she crossed the finish line in a convincing lead ahead of Laura Van Gilder (Cheerwine) and Megan Gaurnier (ProMan).
"My team-mates did a great job being represented in the breakaways and in the last lap lead out for me," said stage winner Pic pleased with her team’s effort to contain the Cheerwine rider’s. "But, it so nice to have a team like Cheerwine out there racing so hard - It makes racing exciting. I see one of them go and I think oh god we have to go too."
Similar to the men’s winning progression, Catherine Cheatley (Cheerwine) acquired the leaders jersey a to Mount Wachusett and held her overall race ahead of Kristin McGrath (Colavita/Sutter Home) and teammate Robin Farina.
"I’m really stoked and I felt really tired and took two weeks off racing so I wasn’t really sure how I was going to come into this," said Cheatley.
"I felt good all week and happy that I could capitalize off of it and get a win for the team. We wanted to get out there and win the stage. I was marked so we wanted to get Laura a good chance to win."
Notable breakaway riders included Sally Annis and Rebecca Wellons (NEBC-Cycle Loft) who broke away individually but were reabsorbed into the peloton before the hot spot sprint for points. Kenda Tire also put forth some successful mid-race attacks.
Lorena Candrian (HPC powered by Alta rum), with help from her team-mate, mountain bike Olympian Sue Haywood, challenged Kelly Benjamin for the green sprint competition. Benjamin emerged the overall leader accumulating full points on each sprint lap.
"They were good sprints and I have to give credit to the girl for going after them and not giving up," said Benjamin pleased with her nearest competitor’s performance.
"Her team did a good job of trying to support her. I won the first sprint so they had to keep working for them. Her team-mates never bailed on her and they gave her a good chance at the points every time."
With the field in tact on the last lap, Colavita/Sutter Home organized a lead out preparing to bring Pic successfully to the line. After a flurry of early race efforts to try to tire out the winner and her team, Cheerwine gave one last shot at separating themselves from Pic.
"I was trying to muck up the Colavita train so that maybe we could get a stage win for ourselves with our fast sprinter Laura," said Cheatley, who launched herself passed the Colavita train on the final lap.
Van Gilder positioned herself in front of Pic before the last corner to achieve a clean run at the finish line upon its exit.
"We came out here wanting to protect the leaders jersey but also race the race and get a podium," said Van Gilder.
"It was a great week of racing for us this week and I think we really showed our strengths. We needed to try to tire Tina and her team and then try and capitalize off of that in the end sprint."
