Saw something new at the bike races: handcycling. This guy was flying in the US Handcycling criterion—20 laps around downtown Greenville.

August 30, 2009

Early action in the USA Cycling Pro Championship Road Race, held Sunday in Greenville. Each of the four laps is 22.5 miles from downtown Greenville out to Paris Mountain, up and over the 2000-foot-high mountain, and then back to downtown. These guys are really tired after this day is over.

The scene at the USA Cycling Pro Championship Time Trial, today in Greenville. I believe that David Zabriskie won, for the fourth time in a row.

This one is for Carl Weese. My brother and sister and I passed it as we were walking around the old neighborhood.

A picture from the ballgame we never quite made it to. We did, however, have a very pleasant evening on the patio of the bar next door, where this was taken.
