Iron City Bikes Racing

The local road racing season is officially underway.  The annual spring road race series at Mingo Creek Park kicked off this weekend with perfect sunny skies and mild temperatures.  Iron City Bikes was well represented with seven riders between the Cat 1/2/3 and Cat 4/5 fields.  As usual for the course, some breakaway attempts were made but none stuck for too long, and the races came down to a field sprint.  ICB placed two in the top ten in the 1/2/3′s (3rd – John Heffner, 7th – Dan Greene), and Justin Flagg posted a solid 9th in his first race back from a knee injury last year.
