Weather for Tuesday looks impeccable at least for this area with a high of 60 and isolated thunderstorms just to make things alittle more exciting for everyone. Dave, I hope you were serious about wanting to do this with me b/c I just requested off on Tuesday, if i can't get it off I'm mentally preparing myself to leave at 4 am to ensure completion of the course.
Just a reminder, the course is ~100.15 miles with 12000 feet of climbing for the whole course, however, if someone has a computer that can measure both during the ride and we come up short we'll do laps up University or on the railtrail until minimum values are achieved. There's no sense in doing this 95% of the way. Since this is a lap course you are more than welcome to join for later laps since each lap will get slower than the previous but i would encourage you to finish the ride (ie, don't show up for lap two and bail for #3.) Questions/ thoughts can be directed at me at your leisure.
