Men's U23 time trial happening right now. Careful if you go to southside to watch, 'cuz the course marshals are far less friendly over there. #richmond2015 #uci2015 #rvanews #rva #bicycling #roadriding #roadracing #timetrial #visitrichmond #visitrichmond #loveva

I was late to the team time trial party and didn't get that many pics of the teams on course, but I did get this: after the BMW-Bianchi Women's Cycling Team was finished with the course, they doubled back around to check out the newest portion of the Virginia Capital Trail! #richmond2015 #virginiacapitaltrail #uci2015 #bicycling #roadriding #womenscycling #bmw #bianchi #visitrichmond #rva #rvanews #visitvirginia #exploreva #loveva

Off to the Races. Took this photo this evening on the way home of the calm before the storm. Much of the city is hereby shut down. At least it will be decent weather for the bike riders. If you get anywhere near downtown in the Capital, it will be on foot. Walked practically a mile just to get this photo, sacrifices, lol. #clouds, #cityscape, #landscape, #architecture, #wanderlust, #walking, #sunset, #streetscape, #nostalgia, #VirginiaCities, #Virginia
