There may be declining participation in general, but I think weather has to be a huge factor. I think 2012 was the no-winter year you are thinking of, I remember 80F days in March. Everybody wanted to be out on their bikes that spring, and only crazy people want to be out on their bikes this spring.



That's interesting. I always pre-register when I can, assuming it helps the promoter most to be able to anticipate the turnout.
