Colavita/Sutter Home surprised its sponsor-filled audience with a gripping finale when Sebastian Haedo and team-mate Kyle Wamsley stormed to the finish line to take a convincing victory. The Colavita/Sutter Home duo stormed across the line ahead of cyclo-cross talent Jonathan Page (Batley-Harley Davidson).

"I'm very happy because this was a very important race for us, for our sponsors Colavita and John Profaci, it was a race that we really wanted to win this year," said Haedo. "In the moment that we knew it was going to be a field sprint we knew it was possible to win."

The Tour of Somerville adds to the team's nearly 20 victories in the 2008 season, an accomplishment that Haedo attributes to the supportive atmosphere and team chemistry.

"This team has always been able to bring me to the line for a good sprint and we are always capable to win," said Haedo. "I have a lot of faith in my team when it is time for a lead out. The last few times we have done a field sprint and they have never made any mistakes. So I trust my team and knew they were going to do it again today."

Strong winds played a factor in the professional men's 80 kilometre criterium. Gusting crosswinds blew through the circuit's lengthy finishing straight.

The Kelly Benefit Strategies/Medifast team highlighted the event with multiple solo flyers, forcing the competition to burn their matches early on. Small separations gaining less than 10 seconds formed and continued to reshuffle riders from Mengoni, Empire and Team Type 1. With 15 laps to go Time Pro Cycling worked with Inferno and Colavita/Sutter Home to pull the separations back together.

Wamsley admitted that his team covered several breakaways but its main plan for the event was to show off its sprint prowess in the finale. "I'm glad to have Sebastian and I up here on the podium," said Wamsley, a former Tour of Somerville winner himself. "Our team-mates did a fantastic job today covering all the moves and they made sure Sebastian and I didn't have to do any work today. They took control of the race in the last two laps and into the sprint - it was perfect."

With two laps to go Kelly Benefit Strategies attempted to throw off the organized lead-out trains and let loose a flurry of attacks. Haedo noted the attacks that forced his lead-out to pick up speed in order to hold the field together.

"It was a little dangerous with five laps to go, fast and teams were fighting to be near the front," said Haedo. "My team was working for me in the last lap and there were a lot of attacks, even in the last four hundred meters but my team held it together and took me to the line.

"I'm happy with this result because my brother did a good job when he raced in the USA and I want to try my best to do well here too," he said.

The day's criterium marked American cyclo-cross racer Jonathan Page's third road race of the 2008 season. Page's off-road ability proved handy on the day, negotiating his way through several crashes on the course.

"I'm happy to have kept it upright today," said the 2007 world cyclo-cross silver medallist. "I'd like to think my cross skills help me when races are dangerous like today, but I really just tried to stay out of harms way. I started my sprint 450 meters by myself and hoped for the best. I came up a bit short in the end but third is better than nothing."

Page will continue competing for Batley-Harley Davidson throughout the American summer. "They've given me good support," said Page, who will no longer be competing for the previous Sun Web cyclo-cross team.

"I have a whole new trainer and I'm using these races for training," he added. "I've done less racing so far this year but I feel like I'm in better condition. I'm happy and my family is happy and doing well so that makes a big difference to my performances."

Current United States of America Criterium Champion Tina Pic (Colavita/Sutter Home) added another win to her criterium winning streak. Pic out-sprinted Kelly Benjamin (Cheerwine) and Erica Allar (Aaron's) in a 600 metre drag race to the finish.

"My team did everything today, they are so good, they just go out there and pull and pull and pull," said Pic, who attributed her season's eighth victory to her team's dedication.

"It's a very big race for us," added Pic. "I didn't have good position at all, especially with one lap to go. But that's the thing about this course, it's a bit dangerous and so all you can really do is move out into the wind and go up the sides to get to the front, that's what I did - I moved my self up some how."

The women's 20 mile criterium started at high speeds, typical for the event where each team expended a large amount of energy jumping with little success. Second placed Benjamin noted the layout of the course that would inevitably prevent a break from gaining any real significant time.

"Going into the race we were out numbered so we went into it conservative," said Benjamin. "That race was so short it seemed like it was over before it started. There are no real corners and a lot of wind so it is hard for something to get away. We tried to stay up front but not waste our energy in a break and our plan was for a field sprint."

Colavita/Sutter Home used its numbers to begin an organised lead-out that started with three laps to go.

"They had so many riders, we expected their lead out to start early," said Benjamin. "There was just four of us and they had control from three laps to go. We were lined up sort of behind waiting for them to get tired. We wanted a later run at the line, later than normal given that it was so long from the last corner to the finish line."

Cheerwine riders Catherine Cheatley and Laura Van Gilder took control on the last lap, a wealth of power donated to Benjamin's final sprint. "Laura went with 500 metres to go and I jumped off her wheel and trust me when Laura is going, she's going and it's not easy for anyone to come around her," said Benjamin.

"It was the hardest sprint I've ever done and I think her effort ensured my second place," she added. "But, I came off Laura and tried to hold on for dear life while I watched Tina go by me."

Pic has shown impeccable stamina when it comes to many types of sprinting variables. Whether she is up against a course littered with technical corners or given a lengthy runway, Pic's sights on the finish line are not often interrupted.

"You have to keep fighting in this race because the race keeps swarming and swarming and it's really hard to hold position," noted Pic. "I came into the last corner around fourth, close to Laura VanGilder. Erica Allar jumped and all I could think was 'boy that finishing sign is still awfully small way up there', so I stayed where I reacted a little later.

"I knew that I had to go eventually anyway because if not I would have gotten stuffed on the side," she added.
