You're being utterly ignorant here. Criterium's might not be fun to watch, but don't knock it till you've tried it.
Horse racing? I don't follow it, no interest, never have.
I plan to, it's on my rough horizon for spring as Marathon season winds down for the warmer months. Register for CAT5 license, got a couple in the area. I figure first I'll hang (or try to hang) on the back of the pack and see first hand how/when the attacks work. If it's fun, and it's a challenge I want to pursue, I may keep with it.
