Do you do any of the local rides?
I try to do the tuesday/thursday rides at the rose bowl, though I'm at the rose bowl probably 4 days out of the week. Other than that, I'm not really connected in the cycling community. I was thinking of doing the sunday morning ride at Performance Pasadena, but that is the only other one I am aware of.

I hope they get it together.
I'm loving a good and important race on American soil, but the TV coverage stinks.

Agreed. Terrible. I think I was looking at tree tops the whole race haha.
