In a familiar scenario, Quinn Simmons (Lidl-Trek) claimed his third USA Cycling Pro Road National Championships title with a commanding solo attack from a select lead group with 29 kilometres remaining, holding off all chasers to the line.
After making his move at almost the same location on Wertz Avenue climb as last year, Simmons received advice from his support car, and crucially water on a hot day, as he continued to extend his lead. With six kilometres to go, Simmons called the support car driven by Tanner Putt once more, for a quick fist bump in celebration.
