Quote: What was the race like? Who...
That thing is always a lot of fun!
Near perfect weather, good people, excellent course conditions and truely spectacular "scenary" running, err... I mean all around the park.
A record number of folks showed up, 45.
Gravity and Randal flowed a bunch of proddie.
The winner was a local guy named Casper, which was good for a Gravity complete.
Second and a set of R-II's went to Doug from down in the DC area.
Third, I'm not quite sure
and
Fourth went to good ol' barn ramp Trevor, which was good for a set of wheels.
The crew did a whole bunch of pre-race cruising in the City, checkin' out all the tourist type stuff. The Intrepid, the path along the Hudson (on past the Stafford Bowl's sister bowl), Ground Zero, Battery Park, NYSE, Brooklyn Bridge/Banks, by accident cruised past CBGB's, an excellent diner ($4.50 for a whole plate of breakfest eats. One of those places that you'd expecte Akroyd/Bolushi to be behind the grill), up Broadway, through Times Square and then on up to the Tavern on the Green.
The race, 7.something miles around Central Park. Way cool!!!
Took on 4 overpriced Coronas after the race at the Boat House in Central Park, just bsin' with a bunch of other skater-type folks. Almost a sureal setting. Then it was back to the Port Authority and a bus headed home.

Cool pic's of the Woosta' thing...
