Cullen and Tainter, off the front, digging deep. Very cool. Read the accompanying article here.This race got a ton of local press, including pre-race coverage and race-day details. One article even prompted a commenter to declare "as silly as they look in their shorts, and femmy shirts, at least they semi-follow traffic rules when i see them using the roads our vehicle taxs pay for.". Great! I think...
There was also a second post-race article.
And then there's this photo:
You've gotta admit, that is really bad ass. As unfortunate as this crash was, everyone who has seen this photo has said something to the effect of, "Man, I didn't realize cycling was so hardcore." Hardcore, indeed. When was the last time someone saw you in spandex and remarked about what a bad-ass you are? The times, they are a-changin'.
Big props to the promoters of this race for bringing so much attention to the local cycling scene. And props to Lance (he's the one laying on the road) and Erik (the one using Lance as a ramp), for increasing our street cred. Heal up fast, guys.
