On a similar note-- does anyone know if there are any races (anything) in/near Rochester, NY from May 18-28? There is none on the USA Cycling page, or anywhere else that I looked.

Thanks.

Enjoy. Sommerville is one of the toughest races around. Trial by fire and such.

Whatever, doesn't matter. PS An hours drive isn't bad for a race/training race.

If you want to get whipped into shape, then the training race is the best way to do it.

You may be confusing the Saturday crits with Monday's Tour of Somerville. Not including women & juniors, Monday is limited to 3's and above (which excludes the OP, but not you ), with the main race being only Pro/1.

The Saturday crits should be comparable to most other crits in the area. Saturday's crit in the 5's is only 10 miles.

Saturday
Monday
