Rouge-Roubaix
Randy Legeai, 3/9/08
I looked down at the computer. 20 miles. With the first dirt section at around 24 miles, I knew it was time to make my way closer to the front. This was no easy task, of course, since the pack was basically ditch-to-ditch and lots of others had the same idea. Slowly I worked my way toward the front and hit the dirt in a pretty good spot, somewhere within the front twenty or so, I guess.

I wouldn't even learn about it until thirty miles later. [Read More...] |

Criterium Championships Race Report
by Randall Legeai, 7/23/07
It was a rare treat to have the Louisiana – Mississippi USAC Criterium Championships at home in New Orleans this year. The venue at City Park was scenic, spectator friendly, and challenging, and the events went off smoothly. My initial thoughts that the course would be too easy and non-technical went out the window pretty soon after the start of the Masters race. With two turns each lap that usually required brakes and subsequent out-of-the-saddle accelerations, it turned out to be a much harder course than I had anticipated, as evidenced by the fact that none of the races finished with big pack sprints.
