Would you race in this event???
Plans are being made to bring back a popular local race in Michigan called "The Big Mack Attack".
This 167-mile Team Time Trial that started out as a bet between two cycling clubs and blossomed into a pretty extreme race in the 1980s and early 90s.
It's not a relay. It's a true 4-man team time trial. Three of the four riders must finish the race.
The winning time is just under 7 hours. The course is relatively flat and runs from Mt. Pleasant to Mackinaw City.
Just trying to get a check on the interest level. Would you race it?
I rode it in 1987. It was the hardest thing I've done on a bike, but probably the coolest, too.
It's amazing how hard you'll push yourself when there are three people counting on you.
