Boulder Velodrome League Racing Begins

News Item: 

Last night was the first night of league racing at the Boulder Velodrome. There was a decent turnout of racers and even a better turn out of spectators. The night started out with a 70 lap points race which had sprints every 10 laps. The second race of the night was a 70 lap snowball which was very exciting. The highlight for me was the 4 man team pursuit. It was 4K and there were two strong teams. Here is a sideshow of pictures I took from the snowball and the team pursuit.
