Rapha Focus wins both days in Providence 10/9/2012 9:27:21 AM


Rapha Focus teammates Jeremy Powers and Zach McDonald dominated the weekend of racing in the men's elite field at the 2012 Providence Cyclo-cross festival.

Powers won in the dry conditions of day 1, taking a sprint win from Cannondale p/b Cyclocrossworld's Ryan Trebon.

On day 2, rain set in just before the start and riders faced challenging conditions. McDonald held on for victory in a race that demanded excellent bike handling and allowed for few mistakes.

In the women's elite events, Helen Wyman (Kona) dominated the course and took the win on both days.

The Rapha Focus and Kona teams ride Easton carbon wheels with SwissStop Yellow King brake pads.
