Here is one from 2016

The balls on these guys must be enormous. Trying to pay attention to the course with the shadows on the road going light to dark at insane speeds is mind boggling.

Was happy to hear the racing is back, after two years of cancellations via the c19 plandemic

Unfortunately, I'll have to wait to see videos when they reach youtube, as it seems its a pay per view thing if I understand correctly.

Anyway, here is some light reading on the background of the race history,TT (time trial) format, and different classes of bikes/brackets of those participating. The racers must have major cojones, as you'd never get me out there.

 Very cool stuff, that I was unaware about till Eric first posted about it here on the forum many years ago.  ;D

Thanks! That was awesome.

I got a chuckle out of the spectator at about the 4:00 mark...

Looks like it was his pad, and he was just checking the race out as the blew past him  8)

Must be nice.
