FIAC Winners/Results/Photos

Some people have asked posting a FIAC Race Report. I wasn't there and I'm still waiting for an official report from Dave Gill, because I was so confused about the results I read (i.e. BJM won the race, but AJM won Natz) so I thought I'd have Dave explain. In the meantime, I pasted Sabine's race report below. Anyhow Congrats to Ben and Sarah for their respective victories.

Oh, and results for the FIAC Nationals are up at http://www.cyclocross.cx

Scroll Down for Photos. I'll update this link when I have more photos.

From Sabine Dukes:

Congratulations to Sarah Kerlin and Ben Jacques-Maynes for their
impressive wins at FIAC today.

The women's race was a 4 woman affair until Sarah broke away near the
end of the race for the win. A surging Lauren Constantini was second
and Stella Carey (with gears) was 3rd.

The men's race saw the first time this season that Andy and Ben faced
each other. By the end of the first lap they had already established
a gap on Justin. Ben launched a few attacks and soon was off and
cruised in for a pretty good margin over Andy. Justin won the crowds
though as he never had to get off his bike. Not only did he hop the
running barriers, he also hopped and rode the run ups. The USGP
organizers in the house did take note...

Henry Kramer outlasted a duel with infrequent but strong racer, Bryan
Miller to take the win in the Masters 35+. Early leaders Rich Maile
and Alan Coats succumbed to a rolled tire and a stiff back
respectively. Rich rolled off for a DNF and Alan salvaged a 3rd.

Otherwise it was a pretty low key day. A fun fast, but long course,
and DJ Grant on the speakers led to another pleasant day of cx fun
and friends.
