The Young Gun get his first victory.....

Team CCR's Junior rider Payne Griffin headed down to race in the Columbus Road Race and netted his first victory of the year. The Junior class that Payne was registered to race in ended up being combined with the Men's 4/5 field making it quite deep. The lessons that Payne has learned through the course of his first season racing with Team CCR paid off in full as he rode in the top 10 of the mixed field the entire race. In the abnormally sweltering 96 degree September heat Payne bested his closest Junior competitor by over 15 minutes winning the Junior's race. As an added bonus Payne also netted a top 15 in the combined field. Congrats on the first win and to a great effort!!!
