MEN

Ricky Garard set an early lead and maintained it throughout the entire race. He looked strong and technically confident on the bike. There was a great fight between the other high finishes. Pat Vellner managed to crash and flip off his bike when his wheel clipped another competitor. Both riders went down but neither was hurt.
