Its Thrusday Updashuns! 8/14

So I’m looking at the video footage of the Portland Twilight Crtierium. Good stuff…. the only problem? I had it set to “small”. Thus, when I post it, the video will be like 320 px wide. Ooooops. Oh well. You’ll get the idea. I’ll hopefully have it done soon.

Here’s Hilary Billington on the podium at Natz
Gleefully ripped from the Veloforma site (don’t think Duff will mind)

A big get well soon to Brandon Dyer who went down at the High Desert Crit Series.
