The Tour of Connecticut, a pro cycling race that was scheduled for May 19 and 20 has been canceled. The race had been on the USA Cycling National Race Calendar. Race director John Eustice tried to pull the race together again this year after having to cancel the race in 2006, but couldn’t get the financial backing to pull it off.
I’m sorry that the race isn’t happening. I sure enjoyed seeing a local pro race while it lasted. The circuit race in Waterbury was a great course for spectators, and the road race in northwest Connecticut traveled over some of my favorite local roads for riding. I hope the race can come back again someday, but with two years in a row of the race being canceled, I’m not optimistic.
