GOLDSTREAM SPORTS CIRCUIT RACE
GOLDSTREAM SPORTS CIRCUIT RACE -- July 10, 2008 -- 13 and 26 miles


It was a good night for Heather Best and Jeff Oatley, a Fairbanks 
couple.  Each won their division in Thursdays evening's Goldstream 
Sports Circuit Race, with Oatley taking the overall win.  Twenty-two 
cyclists turned out for the evening race.  In the Open division, racers 
did two laps of the course, with Oatley besting Tyson Flaharty with a 
time of 1:11:53 to Flaharty's 1:11:54.  Joel Buth, owner and proprietor 
of the race's namesake, Goldstream Sports, came in third with a time of 
1:15:45.

The Sport Men and Sport Women divisions did a single lap of the course, 
with Heather Best winning the Women's division in 0:39:32, followed by 
Laura LeBlanc with 0:40:31 and Laura Gutierrez with 0:44:39.  In the 
Men's division, John Bennett posted 0:39:29, with Jim Herriges at 
0:39:33 and Paul Gregory at 0:39:44.

The course was a simple circuit race, starting at the pullout near 
Goldstream Sports on Sheep Creek, and riding out to Goldstream and then 
Ballaine Road.  Racers then turned onto Yankovitch road and then down 
Miller Hill, where a race rule had all racers come to a stop and put a 
foot down at the stop sign at the bottom.  From there, they rode Sheep 
Creek back to the start.  All but one racer observed the race rule, who 
was assessed a 60 second penalty.
