The team raced a great race today to kick off the 6 day Tour of Ohio. The 57 mile course was fantastic with great roads and a few lumps of hills. Craig McKinney was in the early break of 2 that stayed away through the KOM points summit and till the last 10 miles of the race. Once back together, Globalbike lined up a good leadout train to propel David to Victory. He had plenty to do on his own in the last 300m to out-sprint Kenda and Jittery Joes riders. Forkner will start stage two wearing the Yellow Jersey.
