With a clear track in front of him, Fowler focused on setting a fast pace out front and distancing himself as much as possible. However, one of Fowler’s biggest competitors was able to latch on to his rear wheels and keep up the pace. The duo made for some great racing action for the first half of the race and kept about a 30-40 second gap over third place.

Fowler’s mid-race pit stop was smooth and quick and once he was back on course he had a small cushion between him and Chris Borich. Meanwhile, Borich was pushing the pace to catch back up, but got tangled up with a lapped rider which allowed Fowler even more breathing room. Fowler knew this was his opportunity to break away and did just that riding his way to his fifth win of the season by over 30-seconds.

“In the 4 years of the Tomahawk GNCC, I’ve managed to win them all which is pretty cool,” said Fowler. “I guess you could say I don’t share my Indian weaponry well!”
