I may have to rethink my goal for this ride, I haven't done any extended climbing for 5 months. This is gonna hurt

SAG for the BA Preview Ride on March 25, 2007
Will the SAG have a time limit as to when they will arrive at each pass and when they will leave?

Since we are staggering the start (slower riders head out early) we should be covered with one car (two is ALWAYS better) and Mandy is wonderful as a SAG driver!!!!
Basically, head out at your own pace, but do realize that this ride is training for people doing the Breathless Agony ride and we will all be pushing it a little bit and you should as well (just don't kill yourself!).

BA Preview
My main concern is that we would fall under the slower group and did not want to hold back the SAG or any one else. Thank you for getting back to me Brandy, but as it turns out, we decided we need to do more intense hill climbing first. Thanks for putting this together and have a safe ride.

There should be no problem with SAG splitting up the groups. What I plan on doing is on the climbs leepfrog between groups. It will be a non issue at all once you see how things are done. This is not a traditional "sag station" type of ride - think more of team car with supplies. You will see me in the car at least once every 15 minutes minimum. My hope is we choose to regroup at certain points along the route - we can discuss that was the day goes near. Also you will all have my cell if you need absolutly anything.
One word of advice through - just like an organized century please carry all things you believe that you will need for your bike for a flat, etc. If you need a special tool (i.e. mavic spoke tool, etc) bring it and put it in the car. Please also bring things like water for yourself, or better yet a 2.5 liter of water to share if needed (only a few dollars).

Alright Mandy...you're convincing me that we don't need two SAG vehicles.
