Dana Point GP video
they have the live video feed on the website: https://www.danapointgrandprix.com/in.../watch-it-live
does anyone know if they post footage of the other races (specifically the cat5a/b from this morning)? I would love to see the 5a replay!

Finished the 30+ mid pack. Pretty much my goal was to stay out of troubles after the San Dimas crash so I'm happy to be 80% done with Cat 5.

I watched the last half of the Womens P123 and most of the Cat 3. So many crashes, turn 6 may be the most crash prone turn in all of SoCal racing. Glad I vowed to stay away from that course.

Jake Keough took out Bahati, who quite obviously thought it was either purposeful or due to severe lack of common sense. He threw his water bottle at Keough next time around.
This I heard second hand, but from someone at the scene... granted someone associated with Bahati.

He threw his sunglasses not a bottle but it was still pretty crazy. He was halfway out into the road.

UHC guy allegedly said "I don't care if we crashed Bahati we need some respect." That's not how you get it. U.S. peleton is pretty small.

Some people were saying that Rahsaan was trying to get in on UHC's train. Maybe he was, maybe he wasn't. Even if he was, that's poor etiquette, not out and out maliciousness. I can't see any excuse for the UHC guy doing what he did. Defend your position, for sure, but to deliberately turn into someone and crash 20% of the field is absurd. If you watch the vid at 0:39-0:40, you can see that the UHC rider is taking a full on right turn in the middle of the straight. He probably wasn't interested in that getting on video as clearly as it is.

Watching those vids made me mad!!
Here's a blog by a UHC rider that was there.. he's taking the line that "everyone involved looks dumb and we the racing community blew a good chance to represent ourselves."
Wow.

It would be a safe bet that the guy who pulled off that 'move' might live to regret it sometime soon.

I see the UnitedHealth corporate culture is already permeating its race team.
