Anyone going to the Dismal Dash TT on Sunday in Suffolk? We have a large group from Central Virginia Endurance going. It will be my first TT, so looking forward to it.

KFranke,

I will be wearing a green Carytown Bike jersey racing in the Cat5 group on a white Caad9. Say Hi if you see me.

The course is very flat. You go out for a few mile, make a left hand turn then follow that all the way to the turn around in the middle of the road and come back. The mail road out before you turn left is really smooth. Once you turn left the road is not as nice. On one bridge there were some pot holes that they marked with orange paint. The wind is the KILLER part of this course. Seems like I never got a tail wind no matter which direction I was going. It has a lot of farm land, so you are really exposed. The event was ran well in my opionion.

I hope this helps!

Thanks, sounds like a potential course one (me) could hammer given a little break from the wind.  Would like to do it as I said... next year hopefully.
