CONCORD CRITERIUM August 14,1993 Masters 45+
The Concord course has always been great for NEMRT and this year's race would be no exception. The race was fast from the start with early premes won by Barry and Henry. Countering Henry preme was Neil's solo breakaway attempt. After building a large lead Neil had trouble on the high speed third corner. "I was flying and hit the corner too flat and the far curb came at me very quickly. I could only lay it down to avoid a larger crash." said Neil. After the crash, Neil was able to continue, albeit gingerly, and made a strong contribution to the team effort late in the race. With premes keeping the action fast Derek attacked a preme and gave NEMRT it's second solo breakaway attempt of the day. Earl Page (glued to Bill Hartwell's wheel), Artie LeBlanc, Steve Toplitz couldn't answer the move. NEMRT went to work to cut off any and all chase attempt and Derek flew to an exceptional solo victory. Bill Hartwell, riding a very strong race, was nipped by Earl Page in the field sprint for second. Barry sprinted in for sixth.
