Northampton, Massachusetts November 8th 2009, Round #10 of the Verge New England Cyclo-Cross Championship Series. My coverage of New England Cyclocross racing continues as I made the drive over to beautiful Northampton, MA for a great afternoon of racing.  There was a large field with racers from all over the country competing for a win.  This is what I saw on Sunday, Chris LaFlamme won the Mens Cat 3 division, Mary McConneloug took the win in the Women's Elite and Jamey Driscoll powered to a strong win in the mens Elite race.  Richard Sach's team was looking very strong in the Elite Race as they all finished in the top 10. Unfortunately Dan Timmerman's rear tire peeled off of the rim early in the race and that quickly put his opportunity to win at a minimum, he did power back on a new bike to take an impressive 7th place.  There are two more races coming up that I plan to photograph.  On November 28 & 29th in Sterling, MA and the Finals in Warwick, RI on December 5 & 6th.  My photos from the Northhampton race can be seen here.
