In the second leg of the special Mission Crit four-part series, we talk to the masterminds behind the event: James Grady and Clare Eiluned. It's hard to believe that San Francisco's most popular crit started as an exploration method for Grady, who was looking for an entrance into the fixed-gear scene as a distraction from a breakup. Now, Grady has found a partner-in-crime in his wife Clare, who is the silent partner working diligently behind-the-scenes. In this episode, find out the time, patience and dedication it takes to put on one of the fastest-growing criterium races in California.
