Should be a good event. There’s not much road racing left in the year.
Hopefully this one has a start AND a finish. I’ve entered in my Cycling WA (or whatever it’s called now) grade.
Mike,
– You whet my appetite with ‘short sharp road races’;
– You had me at 1115hrs start;
– You lost me with 384m climbing…
Good to have the “man in white” posting again. In any case, you’ve been going pretty well in the hills of late; could be time to break off those “mind-forged manacles” (W. Blake).
Registrations now extended to close midnight Thursday, or late entry on the day ($10 surcharge).
