Crit Racing

First one is in Joondalup around the streets - just down the road from my place so I'll definitely be there
(sorry guys - something else I picked up from reading that free local paper )

Perth Crits
I like the Australia Day foreshore Crit idea! Now lets hope no jerk throws stuff onto the track while they are racing some big talent in the fields as well. Lots of promising youngsters, the meyer boys, michael fitzgerald, tomic in the womens race and older heads like hilton mcmurdo, looks to be a great line-up!

Not able to get to the others I'm afraid, but enjoyed tonight (and then dinner at the Keg and Bean - African food...yum!!).

We were on the corner just after the start and finish line. I had the kids sat down on the kerb so they had a great view of the race. We were near the medical tent and it was amazing to see some of the injuries. One of riders had no skin left on one of his arms after a fall - I guess that's the risk you take when you're averaging 50km per hour.
All three races were great to watch. Amazing how that Emma P from GB tore the field apart in the women's race. No wonder she's a British time trial champion.
Cheers,
Gary

Wonder what goes thru a riders mind in that millisecond that lasts a minute after hearing the crack?

If I were sliding on the road after a bingle, hearing the bike go would be the least of my worries!! I'm guessing this wasn't just a "spontaneous combustion" thing!!Mulger bill wrote:Scary, thanks Moo.
