Kathy and I walked up to 31st and Hennepin to watch the men's portion of the North Star Grand Prix. This is a professional bicycle race that is so exciting to watch and just a few blocks from my house.

These are the leaders which are referred to as the break away pack. |

Here is the pack which is referred to as the peloton. They were 30 seconds behind the break away pack. |
This is such a fun event. As the pack (peloton) was passing they push a walk of air in front of them which really blows you. Kathy's hair was flying all over when they passed.
