CYCLING -- They started at noon today -- 9 hours ago -- and they're not even half way finished.  A total of 675 riders in 109 teams plus a contingent of crazy solo riders are in the groove for the 24 Hours Round the Clock mountain bike race at the Seven Mile airstrip area of Riverside State Park.

In addition to a great race, it's a fine campout and all-night party for the teams and spectators.

Check it out Sunday.   The race ends at noon.
