Canadian MacKenzie Myatt (Cyclesmith Biking Membership) received the Saturday C2 opener at Nash Sprint CX in Hampton, Georgia.
Anna Christian (SCAD Atlanta) completed 34 seconds again in second and Emily Curley (Quick Splits) was third, one other three minutes again.
Heavy rain was forecast for Saturday at Nash Farm Park, south of Atlanta, however heat and dry circumstances prevailed. The fields have been lighter than normal as a result of proximity on the calendar to USA Biking Cyclocross Nationwide Championships in Kentucky subsequent weekend.
“We have been ready for the skies to open up, but it surely didn’t in order that was good,” Myatt mentioned concerning the darkish, overcast circumstances, noting the mud tyres have been prepared for Sunday.
“The course was superior, a number of slight adjustments in elevation. This weekend and final weekend at Hendersonville very probably certified me for ‘cross Worlds for Canada. I’m fairly stoked about that.”
It marked a sixth 12 months that races have been hosted in Hampton, close to the Atlanta Motor Speedway. This 12 months the occasion was upgraded to a weekend of UCI C2 races for elite males and elite ladies, with a second day of competitions on Sunday.
