We waited all year for this day and it delivered like no other.
The all white kit started as a joke a few years ago thanks to Zwift. Fast forward to last winter, we called up and ordered a box full of white bibs, and waited to wear them. There aren't many great races left and Clamfest has always been iconic in New England. If you're going to show up big to make a statement, the Clammer is a great choice, and show up we did!
The racing was fast and the field was bigger than it has been in years. We covered everything dangerous for the first half of the race until we got two guys in a three man move. We shut everything down for 3.5 laps, but the field wasn't taking no for an answer. When the gap became closable, our newest guy, Mike Carilli, attacked his breakmates and went solo. The gap never got out of sight and we all knew it would be very close on the line. The final run in was chaotic, not too fast to catch Mike, but fast enough to be well positioned for a sprint. 🤷♂️ We didn't catch Mike, he buried himself all the way to the line and landed a HUGE win.
We made the joke earlier in the week, that if you show up with 8 guys, in white shorts, you pretty much have to win. We went first, third, fifth, sixth, and tenth... That'll do. Until next year Yarmouth
