The inaugural Downtown Sanford Criterium on April 27th went spectacularly well. The weather was beautiful, the competition fierce, and the atmosphere charming. Sanford played host to several hundred bike racers and a large number of spectators. Shopowners along the racecourse greatly enjoyed the event, as it brought them many customers on a day that would otherwise have been very quiet in the business district.

The Triangle Velo Cycling Team split its squad between Charleston, SC and Winston-Salem, NC over the weekend and came away with top 10 finishes in bicycle races in both cities. These impressive performances against top professional and amateur teams from throughout the Southeast showed the newly formed Triangle Velo Cycling Team is continuing to build on its early season success in February and March and prepare for upcoming races. Each race was a criterium style bicycle race. A criterium is a mass-start event of multiple laps on a closed course less than one mile in length.
In Charleston, SC the team competed in three separate races over two days. On Saturday, the team raced twice through the streets of the popular I’On Village neighborhood. In the first race Triangle Velo’s Mitchell Luck made it into the early breakaway, but the group was eventually brought back by a fast and talent laden field of professionals. In the end the three man Triangle Velo team took two top 20 spots among the large sixty plus man field as everyone sprinted to the finish line. (continued at link below)
