[cptsilver]

thanks much! good stuff!

[IanInSD]

The etape is on April 28th.

[calamarichris]

Thanks Ian, (and am I glad it's not on the same weekend as Breathless Agony this year!) Work in progress. If you look through it right now, you'll see an ocean of old links, incorrect dates. Updating it from last year's and hope to have it done by the end of the week, so don't make any airline reservations based on the above.

[robertkat]

Nice work with the list Chris. Laguna Classic is on the 21st this year. I'll be riding all the brevets for sure.

[cptsilver]

anyone doing the Chinatown Firecracker ride? http://www.firecracker10k.org/index....102&Itemid=337

[calamarichris]

Duly noted. Will you be participating?

[fishymamba]

I'm going to be doing Breathless Agony, and probably Mulholland Challenge as well. A maybe for Heartbreak, but I am probably gonna do it just to get the KOM jersey!

[calamarichris]

Very good, sir. Will there be anything else...?

[Cog_Zombie]

Run to Camachos Century seems like a good beginners ride

[tony2v]

Chris, here's a link to the SCNCA 2012 Racing calendar (it's correct even though it says 2006 on the link):

Red Trolley Classic is Feb 5th.

[calamarichris]

Thanks Tony. Duly noted. Can I put you down as a participant at Red Trolley?

[egress91506]

Heartbreak is May 19 this year. I'm riding it, Breathless and Mulholland. I'll also be riding the March Death Valley century.

[calamarichris]

Noted above. Thanks for the correction!

[Rumpled]

Tour de Cure is 4-29 for Long Beach, put me in for that one.

[calamarichris]

Done sir, and thank you. Do you have a link or URL for it?

[tony2v]

Thanks Tony. Duly noted. Can I put you down as a participant at Red Trolley?

I'll be at Fiesta Island that morning at my usual position at the start house with bullhorn and probably will race in the 50+, so yay.
Thanks Chris!

[calamarichris]

Ah, thanks for the reminder Tony. Fiesta Island dates updated and the link is still current.

[Rumpled]

Done sir, and thank you. Do you have a link or URL for it?

[bored117]

Singed up for Breathless Agony.

[DM5]

Thinking of Solvang or Camachos for my first century. May go with the metric century in Solvang though.

[Desertrats97]

Man never had i gone so fast. it was scary. Tour De plam springs was crazy. at 8am we had 60 mile per hour Winds that just about Drained everyone. the first 10 miles sucked , wind , sand but!!!!
After that we had at least 25 miles of New paved road and 60 mph winds on our back pushing everybody to 40-50 mph. it was insane. i saw a rider loose control and fly . he was ok. For all you hill climbers it was a killer with a nice reward. Check out some of the videos on you tube. i saw one of a guy reaching 46mph. Fun cant wait til next year.
