((The saturn Cup began shortly after Dede Demet had won the Cardinal Bycicle Professional women's race, She quickly switched gears and entered the saturn men's race as the only female in the field.
((:))
Dede dropped out after only five laps, and although the Raonoke streets were decorated with all the patriotic unity memorial day offers, the indivudual competition ran high. 1990 Pulaski County high school graduate and now pro cyclists Scottie Weiss, who lead the first twenty minutes, found out the hard way.
((:))
Weiss joined nearly 80 cyclists chasing the 41 hundred dollars in prize money; a pot that drove riders to speeds in access of 40 miles an hour on the tracks fast six corners. Fans watched the cylcist make 45 laps around the 1 kilometer course which took a beating from the occassional premes or lap sprint for prize money.
A chess match finish between John Lieswyn and Team Saturn's Norm Alvis capped off the race. Lieswyn's win results in a 528 dollar payday.
((:))
While Alvis finished second, he was the omnium winner or the overall pro champion after a solid two days of racing.))

How'd you like to play it in a pool... under water?
That's just what this group did in Modesto as part of a fund-raiser for local diving organizations.
More than 250 people took the dive... to roll the underwater dice.
