Timpani Maddness

Maybe it was my new Golden Locks, but the riders seemed distracted today at the Timpani Criterium. For the short time I was there, there was a crash in every race. Two people were taken away by ambulance- one in the 5's and the other in the women's 4's. Never good to see that happen. So far this year, I've seen four people taken to hospital after crashes.

One rider that went down this year was back racing today in Santa Clara. Dan T. from Team Spine lined up in the 3's after breaking his collar bone and some ribs a couple of months ago. To see him back was great. But not only was he back, Dan was full-on RACING! He was in the thick of the action from the gun. Great to see him riding like that. Back when Dan hit the deck and I sat there with him in the road waiting for the ambulance, the thought of watching him race like that again was very distant at best. I assumed his season was done.

WAY TO GO DAN!!!
