Stage 2 - March 28: Solano Garbage Hill Climb, 7.7 miles
Vaughters & Bruckner best on the hill
By George Khristoforov

Prime Alliance's Jonathan Vaughters won Stage 2 of the Solano Bicycle Classic Friday, outcharging Saturn's Chris Horner in the last 200 meters of a steep and precipitous hill climb. The course, a narrow country road to the top of Mt. Vaca, averaged a 12 percent gradient over its 7.7 miles, with one last half-mile pitch measured out at an astounding 22percent. Matt DeCanio of Prime Alliance was third.
"He was riding really good today," said GC leader Horner of Vaughters. "He put in a punch coming around the last corner and I couldn't go around him. But I didn't want to attack and go into the red, because you just never know if you can recover from that."
The men's race was together along the flat and blustery Pleasant Valley Road, led by a charging Team Saturn. Whether this was their team plan or not seemed to work against them on the ground, as high winds and a near crash by Will Frischkorn worked to isolate Horner from the bulk of his team.
"Ivan (Dominguez) really hit hard as we came left into Mix Canyon, and then (Trent) Klasna kept it steady for me," said Horner. "When we got into the steeper stuff, Prime Alliance. Danny (Pate) put in an attack, he dropped his chain, and then (Matt) Creed went to the front to set tempo for Vaughters."
At that point Vaughters made his move, jumping to a 20-second lead over the pack with just a few pedal strokes. Horner kept up, but Prime Alliance's dominance of the early pace worked to Vaughters'advantage. Through the remainder of the course it was Horner's obligation to keep up and Vaughters prerogative to lead.
In the final thousand meters the road pitched steeply upwards, showing 22% grade for almost half the distance. Horner could not attack and Vaughters rolled ahead for his first victory in 2003.
"I'm really happy for the 1st win of the year," said Vaughters. "I did everything I could but I couldn't drop Chris at the end."
Bruckner puts big gap into Jutras and Bessette
 |
The women's race saw a repeat of yesterday's top three, with T-Mobile's Kim Bruckner once again putting in a solid and impressive effort over her competition. Saturn's Manon Jutras and Lynn Bessette finished more than a minute and a half back and though strong, were no match for Bruckner's efforts.
"I was setting a tempo and there was a group following me," said Bruckner. "I mean right on me. I was worried that maybe I was putting out too much effort and that I should pace myself. But then slowly I got up to corners and I would look and I could see people falling off. Finally I turned around and I could see that Manon had lost contact with me. I was psyched to go then."
Bessette and Jutras had planned to climb together and use their stage results tactically in the days ahead. This apparently paid off, as Saturn is now in third place overall on Team GC.
"Manon was with Kimberley for a little while, and I got dropped," said Bessette. "Then I came back with Sue (Palmer-Komar) and another girl. I saw Manon so I tried to bridge to her to minimize the time. It's a hard climb overall. It's half of Mt. Washington and that last mile is long."
Tomorrow the criterium stage is set to kick off at 1pm PST in downtown Fairfield. Temperatures in the high 70s are expected and winds will have hopefully died down from their 30 mph peak over the last two days. Gord Fraser is an easy bet in the men's sprint, and anything could happen as the teams battle each other for the win. On the women's side Bruckner has the strength, but the field is large and deep, and the Saturn riders may feel the need to showcase their skills.
Saturn team report
By Giana Roberge, Team Saturn
The second stage of the Solano Bicycle Classic was a short one at 7.7 miles, but was perhaps one of the toughest stages of the early spring stage races. With grades of 22% and an average of 15%, the climb offered both golden jerseys in Chris Horner and Kimberly Bruckner another opportunity to further their lead on their competitors. However, in the end, it was Prime Alliance's Jonathon Vaughters capturing the stage win with race leader Horner finishing right behind him. T-Mobile's Bruckner put more time into her two closest Saturn competitors, winning her second consecutive stage.
The first three miles of the race was a flat run into a left hand corner into Mix Canyon, a gut-wrenching effort for even the top climbers. The women's race saw the same three players as yesterday quickly shedding their competitors, with Bruckner setting the pace and Saturn teammates Lyne Bessette and Manon Jutras gamely fighting to stay on her wheel. As Bessette dropped off the pace, her Saturn teammate hung with Bruckner for a bit more before she could not match the pace, and Bruckner soloed in for the win, finishing over a minute in front of Jutras in second. Bessette finished third.
Although a crash on the climb of the men's race took some of race leader Horner's teammates, the Saturn rider was plenty capable of matching the first attack thrown down by Prime Alliance's Jonathon Vaughters. Only Horner was able to match the pace set by Vaughters and the two quickly put time into any brave chasers. In the final meters it was Vaughters for the win with Horner taking second but given a same time finish and thus maintaining his lead in the overall. Vaughters will move into second in the overall.
Tomorrow's afternoon stage is a downtown criterium - always a crowd pleaser, offering plenty of primes and two opportunities for time bonuses.
