For the third time in as many weeks, Team Excelerator took 1st place at the Ogden Cash Crits. Here's how it went down
TE had 4 riders in the B Flight. Casey Marker, Targhee Child, Ben Towery and Russ Parry. The pack started slow but answered each breakaway by bridging to the leaders. TE didn't contest the prime laps but kept in touch with the leaders. The pace stayed hot for the duration. With multiple teammates, the Biker's Edge guys tried to send off a rider and block the pack. To counter, TE, with some help from Bingham's, wedged their way in between their foes to keep the break from getting away. As the last lap approached, TE's rivals kept up the break and block moves until Casey broke away 1/4 of the way into the lap. Russ, Ben and Targhee were content with letting their teammate go and the rest of the field had no answer. Casey solo'ed the rest of the way for an emphatic win. Ben and Russ held their own in the field sprint while Targhee finished his second crit strong.
Congrats to all involved! And thanks to our sponsors, Price Orthodontics, The Bike Shoppe, Vitality Nutrition, Mountain Valley Health Services, Business Law Associates, Slacker Sack and Bunnell Concepts for making Team Excelerator possible.
