The USA Madison pairing of Guy East and Austin Carroll finished off the UIV U23 Dortmund three-day on Sunday after leading the race from the first day. The victory gave USA Cycling's recently initiated Madison Program the first major success.
East and Carroll started riding aggressively on the firsth night, and established a lead in both laps and points over the second-placed German team of Tino Thömel and Julian Tuchol. On the second night, the American pair was not able to gain another lap on the Germans, who successfully closed the gap in points.
