VIDEO: Page Valley P/1/2 Finish - MUST SEE!
This video doesn't need much commentary. It is 6 minutes long. That's how long it took for the top 10 guys to come across the finish line. I looked around at the start and I would guess we had 60 starters. That's some major attrition.
The purpose of this blog is to present cycling video and stay away from individual race reporting and commentary. The camera goes where it goes and sometimes you get to see interesting things that go on in races. I'll post the helmet cam video of the race tomorrow. The camera bridged into a 4-man break on lap 2 for a lap and a half. There is good video of the surges and attacks before the break got away; the solo bridge; the break itself; and the catch - where Jose, Chuck and others flew by us on the top of the first climb like they were shot out of a gun.
Here is the video of the finish yesterday. Congrats to Chuck Hutcheson and Nate Wilson. It was a fitting result to see two guys who are having arguably the best seasons put together by any two riders around here going wheel to wheel in an uphill sprint in an epic race for a championship jersey.
