FIAC Women's Six Day National Championships

Congratulations to Val Brostrom of Chicago team Bouledogue Tout Noir, and her partner Dena Eaton from L.A., for winning the FIAC Women's Six Day National Championships at Alpenrose velodrome last week. Way to go, Salome!

6 Days

I saw this brilliant poster on Prolly's blog the other day, and it got me thinking. Why not have a return to epic 6 day racing at the home of the event, Madison Square Garden in NYC? London are planning on having a 6 next year, and 6s all over mainland Europe sell out weeks in advance, so why not NYC? Okay, maybe not at the Garden, but certainly there's enough interest in track bikes right now that a well publicized 6 day event could be successful. Hopefully someone will bring the Madison home soon, but in the meantime check out the Alpenrose 6 day event in Oregon.
