A running account of the "race without an entry fee"..... The Tuesday night ride

Tuesday the 4th

Old Faces, Same Games 

It was definitely notewrthy to see SGR legend John Interlandi out on the ride this evening! Everyone was riding well and getting a good workout as the pace was steady and lots of opportunities to put in efforts at the front.

 The first fireworks were set off by Hacker who jumped away late on Mount Vernon. Little T went with, making for a dangerous pair up the road. The field responded and brought them back before the corner for West St. Mike McG took the pace-making over and then Dan Smith jumped for the sprint line. Little T went after him and was able to get the points. Hacker rolled over the line in 3rd. 

Onto the next sprint where once again mike McG along with Chris C set the pace heading up the Greenhouse Climb. The pack split on the climb. Jacob jumped early for the sprint, once again forcing Little T to cover the gap, this time with a couple riders in tow. Simon Milette from Montreal and one other. That was the finishing order for the sprint. 

 Going into the final sprint, the pace was high and Dan S was playing his games opening up gaps to the would-be sprinters. Little started the sprint with Christian Stahl was on my wheel. Those two went all the way to the line with Little T taking it.
