So much hope in these. Crusher of dreams as well.

Only left overs from prior years, I've been trying to save them so we can use them during the Series. For display purposes, meaning racing in them, that'll be fine. For the actual 2015 jerseys just the tight ones.

Tuesday. That's when the town has its emergency meeting about the race.

I got blindsided by the schedule change when someone asked me what I thought of it while I was at a get together. Everyone there thought it might have been a typo at first but 3 or 4 of us checked BikeReg and the emphatically stated schedule was suddenly different, and changed yet again (to skip Easter, which it didn't at first).

Too far out. Having said that, the snow/rain probability for Sunday has decreased since this morning, so at least we're moving in the right direction. Currently calling for 30% precip in the AM, windy.

Got some stuff done, finally.
The thing about rain at Bethel is that rain is a non-factor safety wise at that course, versus the Rent. No hard turns. It's probably why I am pretty bad at cornering in the rain now, because all my wet races days have been at Bethel for many years.
Still unpleasant. Just safely unpleasant.

Assuming you mean Battenkill and not Killington or Catskills ("kill" is dutch for "stream" and ends every other place name in NY)... I'll be there Sunday in the 45+, may go up Saturday as well to cheer on teammates.
The 35,45,55 races are Sunday (and the P1). The Cat 2 Saturday race is 90 miles, you do an extra lap on Juniper Swamp. Tall order to follow that up with another hard race Sunday.

@gsteinb, pretty sure the only field that would have you on Saturday is the 40+. P1 (ouchie) and 45+ are both Sunday.
That's not impossible, but there are some hard hitters in the 45+ field I kind of want to race with. Plus what's the point of surviving to 47 if you gotta race with 35 year olds in diapers and training wheels? Actually the 47 year olds are maybe more likely to be in diapers.
