Kendall Ryan (Caldera Medical x Aurea Racing) and Lucas Bourgoyne (Team Cadence Cyclery pb Waldo Racing) each delivered last-lap uphill sprint victories in pro races at the Athens Orthopedic Clinic Twilight Criterium on Saturday, the second round of USA CRITS.
It was a double-barreled barrage of success for both Ryan and Bourgoyne, who won using similar team tactics. Each crossed the line in their stars-and-stripes jerseys as USPro criterium champions. Ryan last won in 2022 lapping the field as the US champion while Bourgoyne earned his first Athens Twilight title.
