The site is great for a race. Large grass field with a very steep toboggan hill. There is also a section of paved path that they will probably incorporate into the course. We did weekly cross training out there last year. They go out on Thursday evenings if anyone wants to check out the course before the race.

I think they had Ben Popper come out and help them re-design the course.

Then there's the Cork and Kerry for after the race. It's just down Western at 105th. Many people will order a pizza from their favorite local spot and take it to the Cork. Sounds like a plan.
Indeed. Beverly Bob mailed me the Garmin file from the course. Great reviews. They had Ben come out earlier to set up their practice course so I would assume they would employ him again in the final design of the race course.

Love those guys....they're like the Bicycle Heaven of the East Side.
