Nice to know the track was well received.

FYI I looked at the course map for Greenbush, and if you've never been through there, unless they fixed stuff in the last two weeks, there's a section that's really pretty and twisty and rolling hills, but the pavement is really chewed up there. At least that's what it looked like from a motorbike. (It's the Kettle Moraine Dr. segment.)
Thanks for the heads up. Will be hard to preride it since it's such a long loop but I'll be on the lookout.
