This is Brian Piccolo Park in
Plantation, Florida. A really, really nice city park with playing
fields, tennis and basketball courts, pool (I think), and an area
dedicated to wheel sports. |
| In the wheel sports area,
they've got a 333 meter velodrome surrounding a 200 meter skating track,
a skate park for roller blades and skateboards complete with ramps, half
pipes, and whoop-de-doos, and a combination snack bar/rest room/pro
shop/administration/covered dining area/LOUD music system (for the skate
park) |
 |
 |
This park was "way
cool", as they say now-a-days, even having and ocean view from the air-conditioned
private boxes overlooking the velodrome.......no, not really! |
| The beginning of the Stock
class race. Notice Rob English up by the wall on his Bike Friday.
He raced in both the Stock and the SuperStock classes, easily winning
everything he entered! |
 |
 |
One of the two heats for the
SuperStock drag races. Rob English at the bottom. |
| Here we have Shari Bernhard,
the Fearless Leader, and (again!!!!) Rob English on Shari's tandem.
It's a darn good thing Rob wasn't around in 1776, or we might still be
the Colonies. |

Fool's Crow Cycles (Ed Deaton)
and Garrie Hill (me) got together to donate the door prize. Ed
donated a set of wheels (Velocity AeroHeat rims with Sram 9.0 hubs), and
Garrie Hill made up a set of carbon fiber wheel discs.......... |
Now, don't you wish that you
had come to the race?
