My wife's birthday is tomorrow and our anniversary is next Thursday. I've got other plans this weekend..

I am hoping to escape for the four crits in Atlanta though.

I'll be the fat guys saying "see ya" on the first climb as everyone rides away from me.

Warming up is key in that case. We "hilly" race here that starts the same way. I warm up for it more like a crit than a RR. Longer with some hard intervals to get to the line sweating. One might assume from this information that I do well at this race. One would assume wrong.

I was thinking about doing the TT only if that was possible to get my feet wet on my first "racing" experience. Just can't make it that weekend.

I'm doing the RR. This race was made for 200 pounders like myself although I did switch front wheels last night and saved 300 grams so I've got that going for me....
