Bradshaw Silver at New England Track Championships
Londonderry, NH – Peter Bradshaw can’t seem to get enough of those Silver Medals! This past Tuesday at what is quickly becoming a New England staple, the aptly named New England Velodrome, Bradshaw competed in the three event omnium championships. The events on the day were the Kilo, Points Race, and Match Sprints. Peter won the Kilo by 1/100th of a second over Patrick Goguen (CL Noonan/KAM/Coast to Coast), then came second to Goguen in the Points Race. The two were neck and neck going in to the match sprints. Unfortunately Peter got caught up and nearly crashed out, fortunately he didn’t, but the bobble caused him to finish out of the points. With Gougen finishing 3rd in the match sprint it was enough to take the overall for the evening and the Gold.
