Parkview Cycling Classic, Tour de Champaign, Tour of the Valley

Last weekend we had guys racing in three different races in three different states. Yancey and Romain headed up to Ft. Wayne for the inaugural Parkview Cycling Classic - a downtown crit that circled the recently built Parkview Field (minor-league baseball stadium). Nice size field with around 45 riders, and good course with one gradual climb (a city-block in length) and 6 turns. The Neither of us were have particularly a great day of racing, and both finished mid-pack

Slattery and Jolivette raced Sunday at the Tour of Champaign, a downtown crit in Champaign, IL. Both riders managed to miss a number of wrecks in the last few laps, and Slattery managed to finish in the money, with a 13th place finish. Jolivette finished safely in the pack.

Kramer headed west to Cleveland, OH for the Tour of the Valley - a TT, RR, and two crits held over three days. Don't yet have the details on how things went, but I'm sure Drew represented well.
