  • Comments: This was the first time for this race and I thought they did a pretty good job considering the challenges of the weather. I think they were short on volunteers but they managed (I think) mostly by drafting the majority of the spectators to help out, and the ones that helped did a heck of a job. I don't like the hill right out of transition (and back into it) and the road conditions on the extra distance they tacked on were horrendous, with serious, teeth-rattling, seatpost busting, gaps in the asphalt every 20-30 yards. But I think this can be a great event going forward.

  • Comments: Organization was tops! Everything was on time and volunteers were great! This was a fun and memorable race. There were 14 DNF's this year which is a pretty high number for the size of the race. Hopefully next year the conditions will favor a little faster race because this was a fast and fun course!
