Gateway Cup Bicycle Races Continue Throughout the Holiday Weekend

September 2, 2007 Bicycling, Events/Meetings 2 Comments

Many have wondered what it takes to get me to stop bitching about the poor job our leaders are doing guiding the city and region. Well, hundreds of individuals from all over the country racing through the streets on bicycles pretty much does the trick.

Above, the final run to the finish line in the men’s pro race downtown on Saturday September 1st. The racing continues today on The Hill and Monday in the Delmar Loop. Click here for more information on times and exact routes. I’ll have a video compilation of all four races on Tuesday.

    Steve,
    good post on the crit races. After last week’s, “Things I won’t miss about St. Louis” by your friend, this weekend in StL is a great comeback against it. Besides the Missouri-Illinois game which had 67,000 in attendance and the 3 game set verse the Reds at Busch, even if you’re not a main stream sports fan, the gateway cup was and still is on display which is a great display of athleticism as well. Even if you are not a sports fan, well there’s the greek fest over at St. Nick’s in the CWE and the Japanpese festival at MOBAT. Also Compton Hill Resevoir tower was open this weekend which has an incredible view of the city plus the weather was awfully nice.
    The fan support at Lafayette Park was great. I caught some of the Wash Ave race action after the MU-Illini game. It’s tough watching the cyclist jet by the homeless at the corner of 14th and Pine but that’s a problem you’ll face in most big cities. Well may be they enjoyed the bike races as well. I even saw City planner Rollin Stanley, whose name I’ve scene demonized on this site, heading up Wash Ave to check out the races Saturday night.
