Tallahassee cyclists animated key October races in Georgia, Florida and North Carolina.
Four-time Florida junior state cyclo-cross champion Graham Gillis (MTF/Specialized) easily vanquished the field of 17-18 year-old challengers to win at the Macon race of the Georgia Cross Series.
"Right from the gun, I just went hard to see if anybody could hang (with me)," said Gillis, 17, a senior at Chiles High. "I don't think anyone did."Local cross devotee Tim Shank (Bikechain.com) stretched his legs to take second place in the Masters 30-35 category. Chett Hopkins (Gulf Coast Velo) finished 19th among plus-35 masters and teammate Katie Lotterhos placed second in women's category 3.
Next, Gillis and his dad grabbed their mountain bikes and headed for the fifth round of the Florida State Championship Series last weekend in Alachua. Despite dropping chains at critical moments in their races, Tom Gillis (Higher Ground) earned fourth place in a tough expert plus-50 race, and Graham persevered for fourth in 19-29 Sport. Stephen Andrews (Bikechain.com) rallied for third in the plus-50 sport event in which David Norman (Higher Ground) took sixth. Paige Pestka (Higher Ground) came in fifth in the women's sport race and teammate Mike Bonn finished 10th in a fierce expert 40-49 contest. Parker Bonn placed eighth in the 9-11 kids race.
As the co-organizer of the regular local Road Kill Time Trial series, Tom Gillis joined a nine-man squad of local road racers-against-the-clock and traveled to Olustee for the windy and rainy Florida State Time Trial Championships.
Setting the best time among the Tallahassee contingent, Chris Mojock (FSU) raced to first place with a time of 56:30 over the 40 kilometer distance in a field of 15 category-4 riders.
"I had a good time," said Mojock, a doctoral student in exercise physiology who also runs a small business with his wife and finds little time to train. "My goal was to do a 55:30, but it was not meant to be."
Triathlete Jamie Thompson was the second-fastest Tallahasseean, and fourth-place masters 35-39 rider with a time of 57:05. Gulf Coast Velo's Aaron Guyer (57:43) and Don Autore (58:17) came in seventh and eighth, respectively.
