Saturday June 16th.

Again, I have no idea what to expect at the Giro d' Grafton, a twilight crit progam. All I know is that this is going to be a big event that has been put together well. As one of the many races, there is a celebrity/AM race in the afternoon that I will take part in.

I've posted the course here before.


This may be a joke, or it may feature some legit riders....I just don't know.
What I DO know is that it will probably be the only chance I get at attempting a crit.

The corners are just too dangerous for me to take a chance with my hip, but just once, in a small, amateur field, I can get a taste here.

I need to go out and practice taking city-street corners (like will be on this course) at 20 mph.
What do you suggest?
Just go out and repeat doing this in the same place somewhere where there is no traffic? Is this a good idea even?

I am very uncomfortable turning like that, ever since I had my big crash that way several years ago.
