Weather forecast for Sunday is less than delightful. WCA Tech Director and GDVC will decide Saturday night if the race will be held Sunday.

Even if it is run, the weather is looking terrible. What's the deal with this? Ug.

Thanks for the WI Twitter feed, that could be VERY useful this summer. Any official Twitter feeds out of CHGO?

Yeah, timing is everything eh? Must have been a beautiful day down in western IL. I did some beach combing at dawn this morning, worked in the yard this afternooon, and am now listening to some race radio recordings I made during Superweek. I guess this is cycling's 'spring break', next race is in 2 weeks.

Any idea what they mean when they say "Masters"? Is it 30+? 35+? 40+?

We haven't started yet (at least WCA) to race yet!!!! Disappointing, but I can give me knee a break to heal properly.

In order to race a 'Masters' category you have to be at least 30+ in '09. From there it is based on your racing category 1/2/3, 3/4 or 4/5.

There was a time when no one bothered to schedule races in March because even the April races were snowed on all the time. No worries, it's a long season ... there will still be racing in November.
