April 26th - April 27th...2008 Tour De Ephrata, anyone going?
I'll be there in the 3/4, hopefully dragging a few teamates along for support.
Has anyone done this before? Curious what everyone thinks of the stages. The RR is marketed as "rolling" and we're doing ten laps of a 5 mile loop...the crit seems a fast four corner downtown crit, and the hill climb time trial? interesting.

Will be there for the cat. 4 race. I did the race last year. The road race is completly in a new place so i don't know anything about that. The time trial is brutual. Av. 11%grade in the last mile and is a pretty bad climb. The crit is a bit sketchy but is a lot of fun with one downhill and a nice uphill between turn three and four. It is a great race and i'm pretty excited!

Bump... Is anyone else planing on going? I went to the road course yesterday. It's got a few steep short climbs but it's a pretty good course.

yeah its marketed as "rolling", should be a fast course with temps in the low 60s and minimal winds...
looking forward to tomorrow!
