There was a professional road bike race and a dragon boat race today. I hit the CSC Invitational first and took way too many pics. It was very cool to see them whip around the corners of the short loop. After a couple hours the breakaway of 14 lapped the peloton. I got some good videos. Normally I watch the slide show with about a 6 or 7 second interval but I took all these as continuous shots so you might want to try 2 or 3 seconds. And I’ll put the videos up front so you don’t have to dig through all 200 or so.

Then on the waterfront near Georgetown there were was the annual Dragon Boat Festival. It was my first time and I didn’t know what exactly to expect. They are all in identical boats with a drummer keeping rhythm up front and a guy acting as rudder in the back. They did this all day Saturday and Sunday. We caught the last hour on Sunday.
