2010 GTC Championship
2010 GTC Champ Michael Stone!
I showed up to this ride/race with no intention of fighting for the win but instead to get a good hard ride and maybe see if I could affect the selection.
Here's a brief champs report from my vantage point. About 16 riders at the start. Tim (Stone Sr), Matt Coy & Michael (Stone Jr) breakaway at mile 8 on Kirk Rd. I bridged up on Clarence Odum Rd and the four of us rode together for 3 miles then Matt dropped off near the end of Macadonia Ch Rd. Michael, Tim and myself motored steadily to about mile 47 on Perry Smith Rd where they delivered the one-two punch and left me on my own. I finished the 61-mile ride in 2:37 with about a 23.4 avg speed. The next group, w/Matt, Eddy and Brent rolled in approximately 10-minutes later.
