We raced again here in UT a couple weeks ago. USAC sanctioned this time, and with no racing pretty much anywhere a handful of pro's showed up who'd been in the area training. Quinn Simmons and Kevin Vermaerke, couple others as well. 50 mile road race, basically flat, only about 1500 feet. Two laps around the 25 mile course. Took about 30-45 mins of pretty hard racing but eventually a break of 8 got up the road, Vermaerke was in there along with a Hincapie guy and some of the better local dudes. Simmons flatted trying to come across, he would have got there I'm sure. Break stayed out with a small gap, Vermaerke got away solo in the last few miles for the win. I was second. Fun to have those young pros there, everyone was motivated to show up and not let them crush us (lol), made for a fast day, 27.5 mph avg.
