Why do these races have to be the same weekend as Valley of the Sun! So much fun.

I'll be down there for both in the E4's. Looking forward to two long road races instead of the early season crits. I need to do a bit more recon on the Pine Flat course, but the cantua creek course looks pretty boring, but at least it's long.

I'll be there, planning on getting revenge for Poor College Kids. No way in hell I'll be coming home without upgrade points from this weekend.
Aren't you going to stick around for the dinuba crit?

Thats what I like to hear 
I think those 4+ hour hilly rides are really going to come in handy this weekend.

One of my season goals is to get another shirt.
Sounds about right.

I am a 4 and will be racing in the 35+ 4/5 at Cantua. I am skipping Pine Flat because I am going to race twice in Dinuba on Monday. My wife will kill me if I take off on Sunday

you kiddies have fun with those hills.
God help the 3s, at pine flat, btw. Expect an attack from the skinny dude on the red Santa Cruz bike any time it goes uphill. If it gets steep, just hope no one goes with him and there's some downhill left.
