Randonnee Racing – Powder Keg (March 23, 2005)
The big daddy Powder Keg randonnee race was held this past weekend (March 19) in Utah. Complete results here. I hear this year’s ‘Keg was exciting as always, with Euro World Cuppers posting amazing times, straightlining couloirs on their feather-weight race rigs, and generally showing us how it’s done — along with a top notch performance by our own North American Jennie Wall, who took fourth in the women’s World Cup division. Check out this still sequence of a 16 second transition from uphill to downhill mode!!!
