Page, Elliott takes opening day in Wisconsin UCI Cyclocross Weekend
At Jonathan Pages Planet Bike Cup the elite men’s race was won by no other than Jonathan Page himself. The race turned into a one-man show after Jonathan Baker (Vitamin Cottage) sliced open his ankle forcing him out of the race and Todd Wells (GT) had to make two stops in the pit and chase back from deep in the field. Michael Mueller also riding for Planet Bike took second. Bjorn Selander (Ridley) and Todd Wells (Clif Bar) battled all race but Selander held on for 3rd. Troy Wells (GT) fought back throughout the race working his way through the large field to grab 5th place.
The women’s field at Jonathan Page’s Planet Bike Cup was filled with most of the Midwest’s top cyclocross racers but Canadian Natasha Elliott (EMD Serono/Stevens) was carving the turns and accelerating up the climbs and rode away for the victory. Sarah Kerlin (HRS/Rock Lobster) finished second. Illinois’Devon Haskell (Pony Shop) was the top Midwestern finisher but 17-18 National Champion Anna Young (Planet Bike) was just seconds behind. Kathy Sherwin (Velo Bella-Kona) rounded out the top 5.
Racing continues on Sunday at Angell Park with Day Two of Jonathan Page’s Planet Bike Cup.
