More from the San Dimas Stage Races.
Sunday was the Crits - the Criteriums which are as they say "six corners of speed"! The cyclists race thru the city streets in a circle at amazing speeds. And the cornering...Oh.My.God. It is so incredible to see and a little heart stopping.
It was a little drizzly that day with dark clouds rolling thru so the light was a challenge for me and the pavement was a challenge for the racers. But I didn't see anyone holding back.
On most laps, there are sprints for "the line" because they offer up prizes like a set of race wheels or helmets or other bike gear. It makes them a lot of fun to watch since you see them going all out during the race and not just at the finish.
