McLane Pacific Cycling Classic, Saturday March 4th, 2006
I headed out in cloudy skies and chilly temps today, and took some photos of
the Elite Women 1 - 2. Laura Van Gilder took fifth place, but the top three
winners are relatively unknown, two Laura's took first and second, and a
T-Mobile girl took 3rd. The results should be up somewhere soon, maybe CN.
My photo of Laura Van Gilder didn't turn out. Ina and Gina were not here
this year, and also missing was Mari Holden, Kristen Armstrong. Also Audrey
Lemieux eluded me, as did Crissy Ruiter and Erinne Willock since someone
else was either wearing her number or the print out of riders was not
correct. Still it was fun, and a crash took place at the S curb, taking out
a number of riders, right in front of a dining crowd, food for thought! No
one was hurt, but Komar had to quit right there. All in all the girls were
very extremely nice and friendly, and quite willing to please with photos!
