As Psimet2001 has noted in The 33 and as some of you have noted here, bicycle road racing, including criteriums, seems to be in decline in the US and this sub forum appears to mirror that decline. I don't think we need to have another conversation on how to save the sport here, but I guess there is a correlation between racing and conversations about racing in an online forum. I periodically lurk over in slowtwitch because they have some good information about bicycle equipment. That competition forum seems to be healthier than the racing forums here.
I guess it is what it is or some other cliche about things whose time has come and gone.
