Had a great time going. Then had to stop at the halfway point due to traffic. The course crossed one of the major roads that led to the race track, and the race was the morning of the big Nascar race. Had to wait 2 minutes. A definite minus.

Get to the intersection before the cops stopped race traffice.

Got a little lost on the way back. A few parts were not clearly marked, but I guessed right. Had to walk a few times.

Walked around for a few minutes, then headed home.

Very upsetting having to stop on the bike course. Hopefully they will figure this out before next time.
