- The Sacramento Bee reported yesterday (12/29) that the Old Sacramento Lottery
- Criterium for 1993 has been canceled. Apparently the promoter and a committee
- representing merchants in the area could not come to an agreement on money. Other
- disagreements involved start times (traditionally a twilight event, the merchants
- wanted to move it to daytime).
-
- One committee member stated that the race had no benefits at all for Old Sacramento.
-
- The Lottery Crit had its beginnings as a stage in the Coors Classic. It has
- always attracted a good field and I hope it can be resurrected somehow.
