(applogies if something similar has been up before, but I didn't find anything by searching..)
This may belong in the roadie section, but I know you guys in the Folders section, and also know that some of you live in the Bay area...
Does anyone know of a regular "time trial"-like event in San Francisco? I'd like something weekly, preferably on a closed track, where I could pit myself against the clock... On a folder, of course!!!
Before moving to San Francisco I would go to the Eastway racetrack in London (England) for their weekly 10 mile time trials. I really enjoyed it, as it was really informal and they were welcoming to anyone regardless of fitness level and type of bike (I rode a Dutch lowracer recumbent at the time!). To anyone not familiar with the Eastway track, it's a beauty! It's 1 mile of twists and turns, uphills and down - apart from the start/stop/viewing area it's like riding down an English country lane.
Thanks! Magnus
