For those of you who don’t know, I also host a sports talk radio show on WIUX on Tuesday evenings. Last night, we had race director Jordan Bailey on to talk about Quals, ITTs and some of the surprise teams he’s seen so far this year.
I think it’s a pretty fun interview, but hey, I’m biased. Talk a listen for yourself at the link here.

Why isn’t this race more diverse? How many African Americans will be participating in this race?
I think you could ask the same question about cycling in general.
I don’t have a specific number, but at least one men’s African-american rider has been on the track this year.
I would recommend learning about Team Major Taylor, they had several good finishes a few years ago
What team do he ride for? I want to see this with my own eyes
Talk to Bishop. He loves this discussion
