After recovering from an upcoming surgery I'll start speed training to get back into racing after 30 years away. Good luck to all on this forum with your goals and ambitions!

That was some great morning weather up there in Dahlonega and things didn't get too hot either. Got my 2nd Six Gap Century done and like you I also did some Clermont riding before. Have my right shoulder joint replaced in 1 week then Horrible Hundred. Sebring 24 Hours in February and Cross Florida in April.

BTW, you can still sign up for Horrible Hundred this year AND make it a century next year in Dahlonega.
