Let me know how it is. I raced it the first 3 years when they made a million changes every year. I never went back due to cost, but it looks like they have shored up the bike course. Be careful of the railroad tracks

They did a pretty good job, seems like they have it figured out now. The road conditions leading up to the Navy base were not so great which made for a bumpy ride. At the railroad tracks they narrowed the course to "single file" and had boards over the tracks so they were not an issue. Once on the Navy base the roads were great with only the turns and corners to slow the pace down.

That is awesome to hear. I saw a guy break one of his Zipps on those tracks. Then the following year, they shortened the course, and the year after they did the same. Nothing like riding through the base and they are playing revelry and the National Anthem as you are biking past the ships.

I might have to start saving for this one for next year

Yup, that was pretty neat. I gave a salute as I rode by the main base flag being raised to the National Anthem.
