      @@turtleshatz are you a racer? The reason that racing isn't done just anywhere is specifically so you can responsibly take risks. And while this is a weekly training crit, and not the Tour, a race is a race, and people WILL take risks. You can see a big attack leave through the coned area in the first minutes.

    That seemed like unnecessary contact by Timmy. He leaned his upper body way over to the left. It's not so easy to tell from the video, maybe the other guy drifted a bit to the right as he was trying to stay on the pink jersey's wheel. Would be interested to hear your take on that contact?

    Normally I love your videos Jeff - but you all can, and should have moved this Alviso to another date. Its already bad enough you just do these practice races on un-closed roads with normal traffic around. All those road workers already have enough of a dangerous and difficult job to do. Your bicycles flying past at 20+ MPH and weaving in and out of the cones to make your passes is just plain rude, and dangerous. You have a responsibility to promote safe and fun cycling for all because you reach so many. And this isn't it man. Do better.
