I tired searching for a thread of videos, but couldn't find one. If somebody could link me to one, that would be great. Specifically though, I'm looking for race (crit & alleycat) videos, particularly those filmed from a helmet-cam. Or distance riding videos. Stuff like Stairways to Heaven, Tokyo 2 Osaka, things like that. Feel free to post links to freestyle stuff as well, but personally I'm not nearly as interested in trick videos.

Linky linky? :D

My mom is from NO and I haven't been there since we rescued the grandparents from Katrina. Need to get back ASAP.

I love New Orleans too. I spent a week there around New Years, just riding bikes with a bunch of friends all around the city all day. I really fell in love with the place

Don't think so. Cornering would be scary. :eek:

What kind of course is it held on ? Any tight / sharp turns ? I suppose if it were held on a course with wide sweeping turns it would be ok. Kinda like a track.

I bet they have to slow down a bunch to negociate it.

So really there is only one fixed crit event in the world in a year that people know of?

I guess the point is that there isn't anyone sanctioning these things. I'm surprised municipalities let them put them. Alley cats don't need the assistance of cops to close off the roads.
