TT bars on a tandem? I'm a chicken, but I couldn't stoke if my captain were in the TT bars.
ps -- if you really want to get aero, pull out the razor, dude!

Don't mince words
I'd be a poor stoker if I didn't trust my captain.

Razor.... Meh.
Didn't you guys know that the hair creates a turbulent boundary layer over the surface, which is actually more aero... like the dimples on those fancy Zipp Wheels

Question:
I know that check-in opens at 6:30 am... what is the latest you can check-in by? I was planning on getting there around 8:30-8:45am and we start at 10:09:30 am.
Is that going to be OK? Or should we be there before the first rider starts?

I am not sure when check in closes but you do not have to be there before the first rider starts.

BTW.. What neighborhood of San Mateo do you guys live in?
We live close by the "Shops on 25th Ave"/Beresford neighborhood. We are looking at a house in the Sunnybrae neighborhood, but also pretty close to the Hayward Park neighborhood.
Sorry, I was schooled in urban planning (I'm a transportation planner), so neighborhoods and such interest me.

Nice hood... So close to everything, but nicely tucked away at the same time.
Right next to Crystal Springs to start your rides (as we are too).
You guys probably pass by St. Barts all the time (Alameda/Crystal Springs). That's where Ruth and I are getting married.
