And what I meant about real races and CAT5 is that not all races even have a CAT5 field. I can't magically get to CAT4 and if 25% of races don't have CAT5 fields, that means 25% less potential races to get to CAT4

For all the people that actually took the time to post something useful, thanks! I'll look into the Floyd races on Tuesday. That might work.
LOL, dude, I live in Hoboken and I race at Rockleigh. If you need help figuring it all out, let me know. FYI, Rockleigh is a 5/4 mix. It's fun and fast. Most races have Cat 5 fields or mixes.

I ride farther to get to the route 79 time trial here. and there's probably a heck of a lot more hills.
