WISCONSIN: Hayward - Chequamegon Fat Tire Festival - I guess, if you're not racing 'cross then you must be riding the 40 mile point to point race up in northern Wisconsin.Peloton Star is picking Cole House for the win, but he may a bit of an underdog. We shall see!













WISCONSIN: Hartford - A blast from the past courtesy of Joe Mercado. Paul King wins the Wisconsin State Road Race, A young George Hincapie (USA) racing the Junior National Championships at Holy Hill in 1989 (guess everybody was on clipless by then, except Sean Kelly of course.), and the Superweek mafia of old - the 'Colorful Italian' Roberto Gaggioli, the 'Bad Italian' Eddy Van Guyse, and Otto Wentz. Lastly, the finish at the lake front in Milwaukee (1989).

Some vintage 'cross to wrap things up for today.  SKOL!
