Aliquippa’s second week brought cold weather and a windy back stretch. In the 4/5 race Jacob Yundt showed his dominance in the field with a consecutive win in the bunch sprint. Dan Greene had yet another strong showing in the 1/2/3 field and was able to take 2nd.

Thanks again to Beaver Valley Velo for hosting this great series.
