Rohrbach’s Ellison Park Cyclocross

Cat 4

    Sean Whitehurst broke open his CX season in NY as the only CC'er at Ellison Park.
Friday rains had left the course wet. Sean's early registration let him start first row in the and he was sitting top 10 midway thru the first lap. The key feature of the course was the so called 'alpe duez', that Gabriella Day favorably compared to the real thing. The 220ft of climbing and light rain made for a tough race. Sean led a group of three on the last two laps but was unable to shake them. In the last small uphill section a narrow gap opened in front of him and he finished in 10th place.
