Jake Scores a Podium at Preston....after crashing 3 laps in

Rich Cornering in the Pack

For the 2nd year in a row, Nine2FivePro's Jake Cleofas managed to place on the podium in the M2/M3 race at the annual Preston Street Criterium. One of the smoothest riders in the peleton, Jake had an uncharacteristic crash 3 laps in to the race, sliding out in a turn. However, a quick stop in the pits to check his machine, and a lap out to catch his breath, and he was right back in the race. Getting his composure back, and benefiting from the fast lead out of his teammate Rich,  Jake managed to deliver a finishing kick to snag the 3rd podium spot behind Rob Orange, and the winner, Brent Atkins.
