The Schabobele course is extremely hilly. I've heard it described as little more than a pain-fest. After driving around it, I can certainly believe that. I was directing traffic at corner #3 at the top of "the toaster", and even the cat 1/2 guys were hurting after riding up that hill. The thing that was extra bad about this race is that once you got to the top of a hill, there was a nasty wind waiting for you. It wasn't TOO cold, but the temperature was dropping through the 40s and the wind was increasing as the day went on.

Here's the pictures I took from that corner: http://homepage.mac.com/jjakucyk/schabobele/index.html While I didn't take any of the hill itself, you can see how the road drops off on the left. Did I get some pics of you, Doctor Who?
