This is the course video of the Fulton Road Race, a bicycle race in Lancaster County PA. This years race is scheduled for Sat. April 9, 2011. Part of the course goes right up to the Maryland border. The course is 10-miles per lap featuring long flat sections, a couple or rolling hills and two decent climbs. The finish stretch is a long steady false flat, (Shallow climb) that pitches up a bit in the last two hundred meters. This course was used for the Pennsylvania State Cycling Championship in 2007. Ignore the All That is Good Logo. This race is now run by Road Cycling League. Details at Roadcyclingleague.com

History: Fulton Twp. is birthplace to Robert Fulton, the inventor of the paddle boat steamship that greatly improved river and canal transportation and shipping. Born in 1765 he became known as an up and coming inventor and even became friends with Benjamin Franklin.
Fulton Twp. was named after Robert Fulton.
Music: The first song is Big Rigs by Mickey Dean and his Talking Guitar, on his album Billy Bobs. (I'm not joking, this is really the name of the album.) This mysterious band is from Lancaster County but never plays out unless it is for really wealthy people and they promise to pay well and not promote the show to strangers! This records is available at CD Baby- http://cdbaby.com/found?artist=mickey+dean&soundlike=&style=&album=
And for something completely different the second song is
Renewal by the Skatalites off their Hi-Bop Ska record available on I-Tunes. The Skatalites were formed in 1963 in Jamaica and are largely credited with being the leaders of the first wave of ska music and taking it international.
