Tour de Newark

The New Jersey bicycle racing season kicks off in March with the spring series in Branch Brook Park, Newark. This series provides riders with some good early season training and the opportunity for early points towards upgrading.
Week number two was the Tour de Newark, with solid action, breakaways, and sprints. Unfortunately a stubborn snow storm cancelled with week's race.
The video features action in the Cat 4/5, Cat 3/4, Masters, and Pro 1/2/3 races as the season is officially underway.

They have a spring series that is every Saturday in March, then the Cherry Blossom Race in April. The next one will be on July 7th, the Juniors state RR championship. They may add some more in the summer as they have in the past.

I shoot with the Canon XL2. Unfortunately the processing for streaming video here loses quality, as the DVD gives a high quality presentation. See my jerseyrider site for more videos and photography and DVDs are available.
