Tuesday, August 26 Race Results



Our new track sponges are in!

Above all, I’m a cycling fan. We had some great racing on Tuesday night. One of the best moments of the year came in the first As race on the last sprint of the 48 lap race. Ben Jacques-Mayne was leading Dirk Copeland by one point. Dirk just barely took Ben at the line. Great racing!

Week #25, whew. It was a beautiful night with calm 70 degree temps. And, the racing was hot. Thank you to all the riders that have supported this series and I look forward to some great racing in our final three Tuesdays of 2008 (September 9, 16 and 23).

Brownie primes were provided once again by Dash, Jen and Marc. Thank you!
