The surprise race turned out to be a sort of Madison. A 15-lap criterium was run to seed the riders. Then teams of two were chosen, pairing the top and bottom seeds. (Given an odd number of riders, the first seed, Chris Brinkman, rode solo.) During the 15-lap "madison" riders tagged their team mates on each pass, making for short periods of hard work. (The race director was satisfied when he had made at least one rider puke.) 

Both team members received the same Overall points, and the same Group points when they were in the same Group (Gulgin & Hoag). House & Irmen finished first, Chris Brinkman second and Komives & Lavinia Raffoul third.
