Now it's time to start worrying about things we can't fix. What are the roads like? Smooth as glass? Duct-tape-the- hydration-in bumpy? Wear a mouth guard to protect againast potholes?
The Beeline is pretty smooth - it was repaved right before the 2009 race (you ride on the road, not on the shoulder which still isn't too rough ). There are a couple mildly bumpy spots on the roads out to the Beeline but generally they are very good - when I went out last time I thought they were WAY better than what we have at home in NorCal. Think Almaden Expressway-ish. |
