'Inherently dangerous' racing and 'disrespect': L39ION withdraws from Salt Lake Criterium following brawl - VeloNews.com
Inherently dangerous is an issue to deal with as the teams race for success.
Have read of Hernandez trying to enter the L39ION sprint train and disrupting C Williams, but have not seen video of the corner and tactics in question.
Neither rider went down. No one else either.
In the book of unwritten rules for crit racing, what are the rules on the last lap of a very competitive race?
Was either side Right or Wrong in this incident?

That's a version that's very much more slanted to the Le9ion point of view than other, earlier stories I read that focused more on the curbing of Hernandez and then J Williams punching Hernandez while hiding behind his brother (who he claimed to be protecting). Not sure which point of view is right. Could be both. Could be neither.

Do you think we will get another good UCI tour in the USA? We've lost the Tour of Utah, Tour of California, USA pro cycling challenge and others over the past few years.
I know if they want to attract good names, they have to fork up a bit of cash for the teams to send them over to race.
Would an east coast version (Georgia-SC-NC) be feasible? You got flat stages, mountain stages and hilly stages.
