Across the universe
Since NYC is the center of the universe, it’s tempting to say there’s not much going on this weekend, but that would be wrong—there is quite a bit going on, and if you leave the universe’s center you can get there.
But first, there is a nearly sold out Lucarelli and Castaldi Cup race in Prospect Park on Saturday.
Outside the known universe in Hunter, NY is the Hunter Classic on Saturday.
Also out in the unknown is the Sterling Classic Road Race, in Sterling, MA.
On Sunday, there’s the Women’s Woodstock Cycling Grand Prix in Saugerties, NY.
First
Be careful in the rain at Hunter!
Best of luck to all racers(female only!) at Woodstock.
Wishing for much success!
Fabienne Girard for the win.

For Woodstock Women’s GP:
Pro 1/2 BritLee Bowman; but Kerrin Strevell will have a strong team behind her
Cat 3 Danielle Kosecki; but watch for Jody Frank who did well at Dragons last week
Cat 4 Jessica Meany; but watch out for Barb Blakley
Masters: Erica Adelberg (I don’t think she can be beaten…)
Good luck ladies!
Best of luck ladies of NYC!
cares anymore
came outside to walk the dog in Prospect Park. Saw riders being carted away in vans with lights that charge a lot for a ride. What happened?
A couple guys got tangled in the sprint. I think only one Wafel was taken away but it didn’t look like anything too bad, some scapes, but hopefully he is fine.
Why do we do this?
because bike racing is fun.
