Sunny King Criterium men's winner Lucas Bourgoyne continued the early-season momentum for Cadence Cyclery p/b Encore Wire and won the Spin The District: Hapeville Crit on Friday night.
Aylena Quevedo (Kingdom Elite Racing), who won the Miami Prix Crit series race in March, scored the women's pro victory in Georgia, the second of nine stops for USA CRITS.
After the final corner, Bourgoyne launched his attack by passing Marcos Mendez (CRCA/Foundation) and Samuel Mayer (SCAD Atlanta). Mendez finished second and Mayer grabbed the final spot on the podium, going one spot better than Sunny King, leaving Mendez's teammate Fergus Arthur in fourth.
The Kingdom Elite Racing duo of Aylena Quevedo and Jeydy Praderas went one-two in the women's pro race, controlling the finish under the lights. Erica Carney (PIedmont University) rolled across the line in third.
The Hapeville Crit provided a flat, four-corner course located in the downtown Arts District of the Georgia city south of Atlanta. A threat of thunderstorms held off until after racing was completed, the men riding 70 minutes and the women 50 minutes.
A similar field is expected to make the 37-mile transition to Newnan, Georgia on Saturday for the third race of USA CRITS, the Rock&Road Criterium p/b 75 Jackson Properties. Both Georgia races offer $10,000 prize purses, split evenly between women's and men's pro fields, paid 20 deep. Rock&Road Criterium p/b 75 Jackson Properties on Saturday Women's pro race is 50 minutes, and the men's pro race 70 minutes.
