In its 4th year Gran Fondo Russia had it’s biggest turnout yet, with 1,500 cyclists taking part in Ruza, a picturesque town in the countryside 100 kilometers west of Moscow.  Riders enjoyed plenty of sun, hard riding and spirited competition.  On the 96km relatively flat course, Ivan Seledkov won a furious field sprint to finish in 2:11:38, just narrowly beating Yury Trofimov and Matvey Zubov.
