Claremont, NH – Flying solo for the 8th Annual Claremont Criterium, Bell struck again on Saturday. A string of solid results in continued with a 5th place finish. None of the teams present had a large showing, changing the dynamic of this breakaway-friendly course. With images of Ryan Fleming’s breakaway win from last year still dancing in other riders’ heads nothing was allowed to get very far off the front. Strong showings from Ryan Kelly and Noah Harwood dominated the early racing, as these two put in several long solo efforts, but were unable to break the back of the peloton. In the end, it came down to an exciting sprint finish with Luke Keough using great positioning and an impressive turn of speed to take an emphatic victory
