Fall was in the air and the Fuoriclasse racers were on the road to Albany looking forward to another action packed day of racing. The team put in a strong performance at the Capital Region Road Race with David placing 2nd in the 35+ field, Fabienne placing 2nd in the Pro-3 field (winning the field sprint behind a solo break) and Colleen placing third in the women’s 40+ field. Laura Lee continued to impress. She more than held her own in a tough field, coming in 10th overall in the Pro-3 field and was the first cat 3 over the finish line. Christophe also had a strong finish, placing 15th out of 65 starters in his field.
Early Sunday morning, the team was at it again, racing at 6 am in the CRCA club race in Central Park. Since the women’s field was limited to cat 3 / 4 racers, Fabienne figured she’d mix it up with the men. Not surprisingly, she looked very comfortable, racing around the park with an average speed of nearly 26 mph. Meanwhile, Colleen raced aggressively in the women’s field, but had to settle for winning the field sprint for 7th, behind the winning break.
Other weekend highlights: continued compliments on our kit design, book rec’s on the ride home, and discovering Laura Lee does, in fact, have other clothes besides her kit and pajamas.
