Local media=no race coverage?

Watching televised sport you'd probably not know women existed unless the "card girls" in wrestling and boxing and NASCAR champagne girls count.

Hey! Let's watch people sitting on their @sses playing poker!

Agh! Yes, I forgot to mention the endless card-playing coverage. Zen, you always make me laugh.

Maybe Lifetime "Television for Women" could show a couple fewer movies about women being abused and/or killed by their boyfriends/husbands and show us some women sweating and achieving stuff. Or is women's television like the new P.E., where no one's allowed to want to win?

I do agree with you about the women's sports stuff, but this race is not just a women's race! It's a race for all categories, women, juniors, masters. That's what was so surprising to me. I think the fact that there was some type of NASCAR race in NH this past weekend took it off the radar screen.

Yeah - usually you can find out who won the high school football game or who placed in the track meet before you hear anything about a cycling race around here, but occasionally

(this is the race I participated in this weekend - no they don't talk about us only the 1/2 women and men and the 3 men were interviewed, but hey at least they mention that we raced!)
