October 3rd. Anyone else doing this?

They have a crit this year on the saturday. I'm planning on doing the 70 mile Tour. It will be my first bike race (except for a really dodgy metric century in Casa Grande a few years back) . They said aerobars are OK as long as you are careful.

Oh that's awesome. I thought the had a strict no-aerobar policy. I'm glad to see they are lightening up on that stance.

I wish I could! I usually do this one, but I have the Chicago Marathon the weekend after. Probably a good idea to stay off the roads this year.

You absolutely can. I did this race back in '07 with very little bike experience, and a bike that was old and too big for me. I still made it! Not only that, but one of my co-workers did it too and she rarely rides any kind of bike at all! It took her all day, but she still made it. So for you - pfffft! Piece o' cake!

You're too fast for me. I'd have to suck your wheel... and I know you hate wheel suckers.
