I should show that to my neighbor and his wanna-be messenger roomies, scare the cycling caps and highwater jeans off of them.

When is it? We went a few years ago and it was fun.

That was awesome footage. Too bad they never show the actual racing on television here.

thats great footage... I was riding the Home Depot track last week, there was about 12 of us pacing about 25+mph. we were doing rotations and when I was about mid pack and going through a turn the guy dropping of the front was driffting to the back. Well after he driffted behind me I heard someone say "oh shit"...Then all you heard was bodies and bikes hitting wood. Thats a scarry sound. No one was hurt. I'd rather hit the dirt.
The worlds will be great, they fly!

I just saw a bad crash there a couple hours ago. A woman got carted out on a stretcher.
