Sweet! Seeing as how local rider Svein Tuft won this thing, I'm glad to
see it.

I've noticed a spike in B.C. viewers over the last week. You must be
one of them.

By the way, several people reported the video download stalled half or
2/3rds through. That problem has been fixed.

Svein and/or his B.C. fans must have a crackberry programmed to ring when
his name comes up on the web because I blogged a little anecdotal story
about him and within a day or two, there were dozens of B.C. visitors
(that's a spike for me!) whereas normally there are none.

Thanks again Steve for your awesome cycling coverage. In my view, sites like
yours are filling a huge void left by the mainstream news sites (e.g.,
cyclingnews, etc.)

Thanks. It's always good to know I'm not just doing for my own
amusement.

cheers,

Thanks for this. Couldn't help noticing that there are no spectators
anywhere on the course. American bike racing at its finest!

It was extremely unseasonably cold outside -- there were spectators in
bars, etc.

There were 4 times as many spectators on Libbly hill for the first lap
than for the last. I stayed, but it was freakin' cold. Even some die-
hard fans didn't stay. Also, it was the first day of spring break for
schools around here and Richmond empties out.
