Race Coverage - You may have heard that Megan Rocker was the women's champion at last Saturday's 4th annual Du at the Dam. Even if you didn't, most of you know that she's a pretty darn good multisporter. She placed 7th at Oakdale, in case you weren't aware.

Race Coverage - Guys! NEVER try the "flying mount," okay?
Sure, David Thompson (GREAT photo L) can do 'em, but he's a professional and has spent many mandatory weeks taking special classes, during which he had to wear an industrial-strength jockstrap. These classes were always supervised by highly-skilled doctors with specialized degrees in Sports Groinocology.
Besides, guys, your jewels, which you need if you want to continue to be dudes, are already compromised by years of bike pants constriction. Don't add unnecessary injury to your current state of inguinal insult....
