Boulder - Larimer Road Race - Tarkington Wins

WWF smackdown...60 mph crosswind, Eddy Gragus dives for the gutter from the gun.  Dirk Friel, Chuck Coyle, Jon Tarkington,  Jon Baker, and Michael Schilling all make it in the lead echelon.  The race is blown to bits before the first corner, 7 minutes in.

Three and a half hours later, a small splintered breakaway group comes down the dirt section with Tarkington, Coyle, and Baker among about 8 guys. Tarkington takes the win with Jason Donald (Einstein's) second, and Chuck Coyle rounding out the podium for third.
