Harkey WINS Tour de Moore, Conn 3rd

Chris Harkey won his 3rd Tour de Moore while teammate Jeremy Conn took 3rd...while getting a little "front page" action. Check out the article from The Pilot out of Southern Pines.

Chris Knetsche started off the action of the day, riding off the front of the race for the first 12 miles. Once caught, Jeremy Conn aka "Conn-man" countered with one other rider, rode away from the group for close to 40 miles. Their gap continued to grow, however was eventually reeled back in. Jeremy recovered a bit, but then went again with Chris Harkey on an attack. Our two teamates initiated the winning break of 10 riders. Chris and Jeremy eventually seperated themselfs from the other break riders, along with Pat Raines (Time). Congrats to Chris and Jeremy on their 1st - 3rd finish.
