Earning the “Multisport” in our name this weekend saw the Spin/Second Sole Multisport Team all over NE Ohio in all sorts of events.
Jen Petkovsek and Brain Stern represented at the Muncie Endurathon with Jen placing 3rd in her AG and Stern cracking the top 10 OA. Paul Lentini, Marty Mason, and Mike Schaefer visited Lorain for their annual summer sprint where Marty and Mike won their AG and placed in the top 10, while Paul snatched another podium position in his AG. Bruce Macdonald and Andy Cornwell raced the XTERRA in Ravenna where Bruce placed well despite the wetsuit ban, and Andy hurt himself from time to time but still had a good time. Oh, he did his first mountain bike race last week too….double race week! Finally, Leah Halloran and Aussie went and raced the Tour of the Valley (not to be confused with the TdF!).
Racing against former and current pros (including the current masters U.S. National criterium champion) Leah placed well in most of the events and cracked the top 10 in the GC (general classification) at the end of three grueling days of racing. A very solid effort. Aussie faltered on the second day after a decent time trial and ended up playing domestique for a strong up and coming rider from Team Spin named Matt Orehek who went on to take 4th overall.
