Gate City Cyclone

This past Saturday brought the revival of the Nashua Gate City Cyclone Criterium. Located up in Nashua, NH this race was first held many years ago, but fell off the calendar in recent years. The race was revived this year to compliment a stage finish of the Montreal-Boston Stage Race. When M-B folded, Gate City stayed on the calendar.

Working alongside us at Nashua was Richard Fries, announcer extroidenaire. We've worked a ton of races with Richard over the years, and after all this time it's goes like clockwork. Which is nice, because it's kind of that time of year where the work routine can start to feel like a rut. Working with the same familiar crew each week is great, because it lowers everyones stress level. With all of the little things that go wrong at the races each week, it's nice to know the rest of that staff can handle it. From missing start sheets, to crashes, to cars on the course, an experienced crew can keep the train chugging along no matter what comes down the tracks.
