Revolution Cycling Team had a good showing on a day where the wind could pull the snot right out of your nose.   Gusts must have been up over 30 mph as riders made there way around the 12 mile loop.  In Cat IV men, Anthony Petrillo pulled out an 8th place finish on their 4-lap (50 mile) race.  In Masters 35+ (a mix of all categories--tough!) Eric Buhs got 8th.
