Hot Tubes rider earns nomination to Junior Worlds
Racing in front of huge crowds on a tight course in downtown Lexington, Kentucky, Hot Tube's rider Gavin Mannion sprinted to victory in the final stage of the Tour of the Red River Gorge Invitational twilight criterium.
Mannion made the decisive break containing Hot Tubes teammate Anders Newbury as well as Graham DeWart, Cody Foster, Ryan Eastman and Andrew Meyer. The six pushed the pace ahead of a charging main field. Eventually the break shrunk from six to four, shedding Newbury along the way.
Mannion went down in a crash before rejoining the break and sprinting to victory ahead of Cody Foster (South Central Development) and Graham DeWart (Pro Chain / Team Turner).
Yellow Jersey Nathan Brown worked aggressively in the main field winning points sprint after points sprint to keep the Red Sprinters Jersey on Hot Tubes shoulders and off those of rival Jacob Rathe.
In addition to winning the overall general classification Brown earned a nomination to represent the U.S. in both the road race and time trial at the Junior Road and Track World Championships later this summer.
