So far I've signed up for (all pending losing enough weight):
The Assault on the Carolinas out of Brevard, NC (65 miler with the 8 mile climb up Caesars Head)
Assault on Mt Mitchell out of Spartanburg, SC (102 miles that finishes on Mitchell---turned 60 do trying to do some noteworthy rides one last time)
Blood Sweat and Gears (101 miler out of Valle Crucis)
Ride the Rockies or Bicycle Tour Colorado in June
Cycle Oregon in September
Other probables:
Tour de Lure out of Marion, NC (60 miler with moderate climbing)
Cheaha Challenge out of Piedmont, Alabama----visit relatives near there
Number of local metrics
It's nice to have all the kids out of the house.........
