Nashua Criterium August 9,1992 Masters 45+
This was not a day for the faint of heart. There were those who couldn't miss the last day of the Olympics and those who went to a conflicting criterium but those who lined up for this race were nobly dubbed stout-of-heart. Although the soaking rains had slowed by the time the race started the cold and damp remained. Barry Boyce, NEMRT's only racer tried alone to dominate the field. The early pace was slow with few attacks until the preme bell started ringing and put some zip into the race. The Bullet fire on all the early premes posting his name prominately on the announcer's winner list. After the third preme Barry looked back to see the field fading and attacked. "I remember think this is too early to go solo but if the opportunity is there you've got to take it" said Barry after the race. The next few laps saw the lead steadily increase until the field was out of sight and seemed to lose interest in chasing. With seven laps to go someone yelled "your 31 second from lapping the field". Never having had that chance before Barry kicked it up a notch and went after the field. It took the Bullet two more laps to catch the field and with the victory assured Barry kept a smooth pace to the end towing the pack the last few laps. "This was one of those days that everything went right. The Bullet got fired early AGAIN!?!" added a tried Bullet.
