Ian Boswell came back from almost a minute down to finish second in SBT GRVL on Sunday. The American, who won Unbound Gravel earlier this summer, finished behind Alex Howes and one place ahead of Peter Stetina in a three-up sprint to decide the race in Colorado.

At one point Boswell found himself outside of the front group and chasing at close to a minute but a general regrouping occurred before a final selection was made. The leading group thinned out to five riders and then became three – Howes, Stetina, and Boswell – with around 12 miles remaining.
