As a follow up, I went on sunday. It took me a while to get there since they closed the road I needed to turn on, but I got there a little after noon. The 4 races I was were cool. Met some cool people. They ended up not doing the afternoon races, so the event ended about 1:30. Were any of you there? Did i meet you? I was wearing a black sultans tshirt and grey short. Looking a bit out of place.

Austrailian pursuits end up being more like an endurance race becuase you end up with only two on the track battling it out. Who can go the longest and close the gap wins. For this these races are a ton of fun to compete in and for crowds to watch.
