Hopeful Friday April 1, 2011

Embarrassment, hopefully riches

 Sometimes there’s just so much spring racing available that it seems ridiculous. I have a busy day today, so I’m just going to jump into the phalanx of scheduled events.

On Saturday, there’s a CRCA club race. There’s the final Brinkerhoff Memorial Spring Race Series in Coxsackie. There’s the 9th Annual Chris Hinds FUJI "Sunshine" Criterium in Charlestown, RI. There’s a Branchbrook Race on Saturday. The Sandy Hook TT is on Saturday, and finally there’s a Spring Series Race on Saturday in Prospect Park.

And the weekend’s only half over at that point. On Sunday there’s a Women’s Track Clinic at Kissena. There’s another Prospect Spring Series race. Sunday also has the 2011 Outdoor Sport Center Bethel Spring Series – Criterium de Bethel. And to top to all off you can unwind by watching the Tour of Flanders at BXL.

Branchbrook’s P-1-2-3 race went like this. An early 10 man breakaway took off consisting of John Durso, Raffie Urzadowski, Stephan Dioslaki, Tom Barnette, Mike Goret, Gui Nelson, Edwin Bull, Steve Ward, A Westwood Velo Guy, a Northeast Hardware Guy (heavy Polish Accent). Tom Barnette got crashed out by the guy with the heavy Polish accent. Edwin Bull’s seat dropped from hitting a pothole so he had to pull off. Gui Nelson flatted out. So that left 7. The dude with the heavy Polish Accent never took a pull. He sat on the whole entire time. The Westwood dude was fading quick and had nothing left nearing the end. The gap on the field was HUGE. The Polish guy with the heavy accent lead out the sprint starting from the rear corner. His teammate Raffie was on his wheel with Durso 3 and Dioslaki 4th. Raffie jumped around his teammate with Dioslaki reacting quickly and grabbing his wheel. Raffie was sprinting for the win but Dioslaki heavily outpunched him and took a clear win. If this writer saw it correctly, it was Raffie was 2nd and Durso was 3rd.

Nice report, except you forgot that when discussing park races, you spell out and capitalize the PRO in PRO 123

so 2 guys run into each other at Ellis Island…one of them has a copy of Moby Dick with him. The one guy says, “why do you have that, you can’t read it?” the second guy says “I’m trying to polish my English”. The first guy says “your English is Polish enough”.

unfortunately the worst place to check results is CRCA website results, hardly they can post the 1rst place right,hardly….anything else don’t waste your time waiting for a right placing post.

Matteo Clamp

pretty sure those aren’t correct, considering i saw the sprint (or maybe i was still drunk from last night?)

Carlos Martinez

They’re volunteering dude. Plus it’s a 10 dollar race. Thanks Crca take your time.(even though i came in 101st).

Yes, there is a major mix up, they will be corrected over the weekend. The Official there, we have to have a USAC official now, completely screwed the results given to our race director that was filling in for today.
So, yes, we are aware, and, yes, we are correcting.

Patience…

If you PERSONALLY think you “scored” of any race today, please contact me OFF LIST. All other requests will not be processed or considered. I will compare with what we have and do our best to resolve MONDAY…

Cheers!
