With the completion of the Ocala Stage Race, yet another season of Florida bike racing has drawn to a close. Cycle Logic represented itself well with a few podium performances.Saturday
Our superstar Junior racer, Justin Pfaff, continued his season long domination of his age group by winning the road race. Per usual, Justin's age group was combined with the next older age group. Justin and one of the older age-groupers attacked the field and put about 2 minutes on them by the end. At the line, Justin out sprinted his break partner and took a comanding lead in the overall stage race.
In the Cat.4 Road Race, Anthony Musalo worked tirelessly to deliver teammate Tal Mincey to the front in time for Tal to sprint his way to second place (see photo at top left). Also on Saturday, both Eric Stubbs and Roger Montes (see photo at lower left) finished in the top ten of the Cat.3 field while Eric also finished top 5 in the Time Trial. Rob Robins truly finished the season off with a bang in the Cat.3 road race...Rob crashed hard but will live to race again (his LOOK was okay too).
Cycle Logic has been increasing it's numbers in the Masters 35+ field lately. James Penrod and Ken Sallot once again threw down to help our M35+ team leader, Scott Pfaff out in the race. Scott used the team to position himself and earn enough points to secure his 7th place finish in the season-long Florida Points Series (out of over 200 M35+ racers!)Sunday
The Forest Road Race was much flatter than the previous day's offering. Once again Roger Montes and Eric Stubbs overcame lack of numbers. With selfless teamwork, Roger placed Eric exactly where he needed to be towards the end of the race. Eric was able to capitalize on Roger's effort and crossed the line for a Cat.3 win!
By placing 6th, 4th and 1st in the weekends individual races, Eric secured yet another podium by placing 2nd in the overall Stage Race.
Our Junior sensation also finished the stage race with the lowest overall time thus giving Justin the podium step that he is most used to, the top one.

Ok, we rock! Pat yourselves on the back! Not too shabby for a two-year-old team of mostly mature working stiffs.
More to come I'm sure.

"working tirelessly" is a bit of a stretch. all i did was set off a bottle rocket to throw off those with winning aspirations.
