---- ISAPI_rewrite - wrong URLs crawled

I am using isapi_rewrite and wrote a rule to have all urls in format1 be served by format2 (see below).
The problem is when googlebot came around it "saw" format2 and not format1 like I wanted, what did I do wrong?
All links to the pages are like <a href="http://www.site.com/FL/Miami/123456.asp">Link Text</a>, and the browser window shows format1 once you go to the page.

Format1 = www.site.com/FL/Miami/123456.asp

Format2 = www.site.com/page.asp?state=FL&cityid=123456&city=Miami

Googlebot log entry:

2004-01-25 08:55:38 69.44.59.30 GET /page.asp state=FL&cityid=123456&city=Miami
80 - 64.68.82.27 Googlebot/2.1+(+http://www.googlebot.com/bot.html) - 200 0 0 8929 218

Also, in the log entry, shouldn't "/page.asp state=FL" look like "/page.asp?state=FL"?

Thanks
