The field was stacked with pros and pro-lites since there was no National Racing Calendar race that weekend. Ben Day, a Toyota-United rider and former Aussie national champion, took the spoils with a time of 32:54.
Patrick McGlynn was the first Team Legacy Energy rider through in 13th, followed by Jarred Berger in 14th, Brad Cole in 17th, Dan Workman in 23rd, and Phil Mann in 33rd. View Results.
About two hours after the finish, the Team lined up for the Team Time Trial. The five man team consisted of Patrick McGlynn, Jarred Berger, Brad Cole, Dan Workman, and Phil Mann. The team traversed the course in 33:43 and ended up third behind Team Slipstream and Toyota-United.
Sunday, April 13th the team opted for a ride in mountains around Fort Collins.
The team rode down to Rattlesnake and climbed up to the top, then rode up to Stove Prairie, down to the Poudre, back up to Stove Prairie, up the backside of Rist Canyon and down for a nice 5 hour day
Brad Cole and Jarred Berger set the bar for the fastest ascents of most the climbs; Director Sportif Andy Clark set the bar for minimum speed on each of the day's climbs. Twas a good ride and not too dissimilar in topography from the last day of Tour of Gila - the Gila Monster stage.
