Event comments:

Was in Cleveland for work so signed up because fit into my schedule. Nice area, right at RR hall of fame so that was a highlight but in general the course is pretty boring, pretty much all on a highway, not too much to look at. Crowd support was better than you may expect for such an odd setting (the highway).
