Today was the Paphos ITT division 5 race. This was Emerge's first race of the new season, and the first time the team had competed in Division 5. And what a succesful first outting it was, with Tjaard Saaberg getting first, with the fastest times in all sectors, and Montrel Garcia getting second place.
It was also considerably pleasing as the result was totally unexpected among the management, because of the high level of competitors. Among them was a long standing rival of Emerge, Hubert Bjargarsson (Los Sprinters Locos). The talented TT'er is building a big reputation in the lower divisions, after winning four races in a row a short while ago.
It would appear as though Saaberg and Garcia have the answer to him however, after bringing his impressive run to an end, aswell as beating him convincingly today.
After this first win in Division 5, Emerge were promoted and as thus will be competing in Division 4 for the immediate future. The team will still be focused on TT's with Tjaard and Montrel while training the sprinting aspect of the team, and in particular Avery Nijholt (see previous press release). Management are predicting a tough couple of months, as the teams at this level have some great riders, and management are worried Team Emerge will be overawed.
