MS 150 has moved the finish line to Circuit of the Americas (COTA).

Why? They say it's because of renovation work being done on the Capitol, but I've heard it's a big pain in the ass to block off streets in downtown Austin. Lots of people were upset with the disruption.

Friends of mine have ridden their bikes at COTA and say it is fun. I always had this dream of continuing past the downtown finish line and getting a Reality sandwich at Hole in the Wall, but I never actually did it. COTA is about 17 miles from Hole in the Wall, so I doubt I'm going to be doing that.
