Tour de Syracuse took place this past weekend 5/22 – 5/23/10 with a very impressive showing by our own Mello Velo Racers, Randy Hadzor, Dan Fitzgibbons, Brian Nilson, Wesley Hadzor and Kate Stewart.

The race this weekend was a stage race called an Omnium which included a Criterium, Time Trial and Road Race. The Crit was located in the Strathmore neighborhood in Syracuse’s West Side at Onondaga Park. Criteriums consist of a loop, usually no longer than a mile, where riders cycle a certain number of laps depending on what category they ride in (Cat 5-1).

Second race was the 3 mile time trial around Crooked Lake at Song Mountain, Tully NY. Go hard or go home!

A few hours later, cyclists were back on the road getting ready for their road race which depending on category was either a 28, 56 or 84 mile race.

Variety Studios would like to congratulate all the competitors and thank all the volunteers involved in this weekend’s Tour de Syracuse.

Congratulations to Dan Fitzgibbons for winning King Of The Mountain in the road race.

A huge congratulations goes out to Variety Studios’ Randy Hadzor for placing 3rd in the Criterium, 2nd in the time trial and 1st in the road race, finishing 1st place in the Omnium Cat 5 (competing in all 3 races) overall standings.
