Mike Margarite of CRCA/Empire Cycling Team from New York, NY won the largest race in North America riding Echappe HED Stinger 60s. Mike played the course to his strengths and turned the pressure on about 1 hour into the race up a steep ascent. Mike is a very strong time trialist (he won the Silvermine TT aboard Echappe's Mavic Comete disc wheel last Fall) and he successfully bridged to a small break away of three. This effort took him over an hour. Once he caught the group, he rotated through five times, looked around and attacked the group. No one responded and he put his head down and drilled it. Mike officially finished a full 49 seconds in front of the field, though at times he had over 6 minutes.
Mike's win earned him another free rental with Echappe Equipment. Congratulations, Mike!
