  • Overall course based on my ability: Just right

  • Comments: This race is just too crazy for me. It's an awesome test against the best riders in the state, but logistically it's crashes waiting to happen. I know of 6 people who crashed, 3 of them taken to the hospital on stretchers. I almost went down in the neutral area when for some reason the peloton slowed down to about 7 mph on the flats, and there were numerous other close calls that I saw. I don't ever think I will do this race unless I'm in absolute peak form and I feel I have a chance to hang onto the final group. It's just not worth it to do this race "for fun".
