Under absolutely perfect racing conditions on some of the roads and back roads of North Boulder County, the Boulder Roubaix took place yesterday and proved to be a war of mechanical attrition for many. Frank Pipp, who can sprint with the best took the victory on the mens side of things and Allison Powers destroyed the womens field separating early in the race and riding solo to victory. The mens field saw a five man break stay away which included Robin Eckmann, Pipp, Creed, Sullivan and Kyer who worked to perfection until the decisive early sprint from Pipp, who coasted home.
