Melinda Weiner won the State Road Race Championship in Bakersfield with a breakaway 30 miles from the finish. After breaks by Morgan and then Anna, Melinda attacked after the feed zone and stayed away untill the finish. Not sure if she would make it to the end, she was helped by inspirational messages written on the ground near the top of the climb. She collapsed after finishing due to exaustion, only to be revived with the help of an ice cold Coke handed to her by Superfan.
