Course: Bike was cut WAY short because of flooding. We couldn't go past low water crossing so we did an out and back loop two times. It was defintely shorter than 6 miles as I was not going 22.5 mph, but that is what my chip reported! Overall it was tough to get around people because of the short course and hard to get speed going with wet streets.

Thanks for the race report! I saw the bike times and wondered how anyone could have ridden that fast in the rain! A bunch of us sat in the car and decided on breakfast and mimosas instead! Kudos to you for even doing it!
