Coryn Rivera did it again. The Proman cycling phenom beat 'em all to the line...including runner-up Tina Pic, the five-time US national champion...at the Cascade Classic criterium in downtown Bend, Oregon. For the record, Pic is 43 years old. Rivera is just 16. But on the road, age doesn't matter...it's all about power and speed. They raced for 50 minutes in Bend, and it all came down to the last lap, and the final few inches. That's what separated Rivera from the rest. We always seem to come away from women's races with some great photos, and the Cascade crit is no exception. Take a look at the action, from the pre-start to the podium, below.
