Memorial Day racing in the U.S. was highlighted by a pair of classic criteriums on the NRC calendar, the Tour of Somerville in Somerville, New Jersey, and the Quad Cities Criterium in Rock Island, Illinois. On a dismal day in New Jersey, Jonas Carney defended his title at the 60th Tour of Somerville, beating out Jittery Joe’s Jeff Hopkins to take the Somerville crown for a fifth time. In the women’s race, Saturn took a 1-2 sweep, with Sarah Uhl and last year’s winner Laura Van Gilder beating out another former champion, Diet Rite’s Tina Mayolo-Pic.

Meanwhile, at the Quad Cities races, 7UP-Maxxis’s Hayden Godfrey beat out Jason Waddell (Mathis Brothers) in the men’s race, while Sherrie Stedje (Best of the Bay) beat Kelly Benjamin (ABD Cycle Club) in the women’s contest.
