Cleves Results May 26

[Patrick McMullen]

The weather last night was not very cooperative as the rain, albeit mostly a light drizzle, started shortly before the first rider left the start line in Cleves and continued until the last rider crossed the finish line in North Bend.

Although this may not have been a fast night for everyone, there was one exception.  Eli Banish rode up from his home near Rabbit Hash, KY and promptly set an all time course record for an 18-year-old in only his second ever attempt at Cleves!  Incredibly, his time now also ranks as the 6th fastest time for all ages combined, matching the time of Francis Manfred in 2008.

We also just realized that Bella Kroutil, the 18-year-old rider from Bowling Green, KY that we highlighted last week had also set an incredibly fast time.  Bella’s ride last week placed her #2 on the all time course records list for an 18-year-old female (only 5 seconds behind the leader!).  She also now holds the 6th fastest time for all ages combined for a female.

A huge CONGRATULATIONS to both of these young riders from everyone here at Queen City Wheels!    

Please see the second tab on the attached Results Sheet for the newly revised "Top 10" Course Records List.   

Thanks to Ginny Lenahan and John Fischer for timing in the rain!

It seems that there was a ten second error on the time indicated for Eli Banish on (only) the Course Records tab sent yesterday.  I have attached the corrected file.  My apologies for the initial error!
