CRCA/Empire’s Jonathan Chodroff has won the elite men’s Individual Time Trial Nationals in Anaheim.

Travis Burandt of CRCA/Sakonnet took the last Nationals podium spot by getting fifth. Unfortunately the team’s top TT specialist Guy East was unable to race due to illness.

CRCA Junior Development/Orbea riders Connor Sallee and Evan Cooper were satisfied with their TT efforts. Connor came in 20th, 2:40 back. They will be competing in the crit on Thursday and the road race on Sunday.

Chodroff’s win follows his TT win at Fitchburg.

Another top local TT rider, Will O’Donnell, flatted ending his podium hopes.
