I'm doing it in the 3's. I've got plenty of power, but at 170lbs...I'm obviously at a disadvantage in the TT. We'll see how it goes.

I'll be there hoping that I can overpower GMR with an assault of raw wattage.
Not like it matters in the 4s anyway.

I'll be there. Bringing a squad of pasty white Minnesotans out to train in Agoura Hills for a week beforehand. We'll be easy to spot in the pack......

Can't afford it, I might go out and watch the time trials on Friday and support my friends. I'll definitely be donning the speedo and running with a "GO UMD" sign on the TT.

My teammate's racin it. I'm going as his feeder.
May ride the TT after everyone's cleared off the course just to see how I'd stack up.

Ha ha ok. Is the circuit really hilly? I have skipped this race each year since I hate uphill time trials but it might be fun to do next year.

It's not super hilly but there the main (KOM) climb is like 150ft avg 7% with some 10% spots, a bunch of rollers, a few 20-50ft 7% kickers, and a false flat for the first 1/4 of the lap. Maybe 500ft or so the 7 mile lap.

It still says cat 5 meter under his name, and his join date (when he probably put that there) was only a few months ago, so I'm going to go with the first option.
Remove the Cat 1 meter until you earn it, bud.

Maybe he is trying to give Razor a run for the least taken seriously in the 33... Little midget mikey was pulling the pack around for a while but didn't have the stamina for the attack from Razor, but Razor is losing steam and now Caad 8 is bridging up.
