Worst race video ever.

Actually, the second sprint wasn't too bad. The winner looked like he
was seriously risking the Zabel Maneuver.

The slo-mo replay of the first sprint, where the winner took it by 20
bike lengths, was pointless.

Short-sleeves and everything!

It seems almost nobody uses their drops. Is that because everyone has
their bars so low, or is it just where the video was shot? Or both?

The location was the top of a rise.

Nice with the big turn out. I've got the season's second race coming
this evening, so it was nice to watch to get pumped.
