For those doing the LG HIM, I rode the course today for the first time.  Overall, I didn't think it was too bad, but beware of the railroad crossings, particularly towards the middle to end of the course.  They are the worse I have ever seen, potholes, part of the road is missing, deep divits before the tracks, etc. I fell not once, but twice crossing over them and that has never happened to me before.  Also some pretty rough sections of roads to contend with in the same area.  I'm going back to do it all over again in a few weeks so will try to remember the mile markers next time.

Also did part of the run course. Be prepared for the hills, they are steep, long and numerous.  Oh and we get to do them all twice!

anyone up for the LG-HIM bike course this Sunday?  I'll be down there in the afternoon, assuming the rain holds off.
