Default CORE STATES from the inside

On Monday, June 7, 1993 at 10:03:34 AM UTC-5, Ken Anderson,S403,4758,ADD.11-25-91 wrote:
An early break went and got 9.5 minutes up the road by the end
of lap 3. The group contains Hegg (LA sheriff), Grewal (Coors), Davidson (IME),
some Italians (Mecair/Ballan), Rutter (Duckhead), ... for about a 10 man group.
At this point, Motorola began to chase (for armstrong and for a million bucks).
that actually made the race damn hard because, while the pace was never super
fast, it just never let up. The break gets caught and then Mann goes up the
road on lap 8 and Armstrong, Copeland, Julich, Gaggioli and a couple of Italians
(both, Mercatone Uno) go up to him. Mann gets dropped and the rest ride around
on lap nine and are ~2.5 minutes up. Last time up the wall, Armstrong jumps
(in the big ring!) and no one can respond. He leaves the break 30s back
at the top of the hill and just keeps rolling. Coors heres this and
flips. Gaggioli was supposed to have Armstrong marked. Coors begins
chasing from the field. Saturn and Subaru are also chasing because
they have no one up the road. The rest of the break gets caught
but by this time, Armstrong is now ~2 minutes away and still gaining.
With only three of the small finishing laps to go, everyone is racing for second
place.


The rest of the story...

Armstrong bought this win and used the money to buy more PEDs.
