I'm searching for racing/practice racing around Baltimore. I'm finding plenty of stuff ~1+ hr drive away. Is there any action close to the city? Something mid week?
The search feature on this site seems to be down and google isn't coming up with anything useful.
Thanks

The BBC does training rides not that far from the city. http://www.baltobikeclub.org/index.pl/racing

OOOhh grassroots has something planned for march 28th, saturday @ 3 @ camden yards lot, I just might be able to get in on that. Be kinda cool since its all for fun, road bikes racing BMX or mountain bikes too. I have no idea what to expect but a race whether its against a unicycle is still a race, right.
OP, I too wish races were closer to home, I haven't raced yet but with the wife and kids coming along when I do, over 1 hour driving isn't fun. Just so they can see my fly by several times and possibly get dropped and then go home. All for an under an hour race.
