Andrew Strohmeyer soloed to victory to claim the elite men’s Pan-American Cyclocross Championships title, dropping defending champion Eric Brunner on the final three laps in Washington, DC, on Saturday.
Strohmeyer, 23 who rides for local team CXD Trek Bikes, is the reigning USA national cyclocross champion. He and Brunner (Competitive Edge) pulled away from the field in the first lap, and duked it out until Strohmeyer powered away with three laps to go. Brunner, a four-time Pan-American champion, claimed silver, crossing the line 52 seconds later.
