Don't want to be snarky here, but where's the racing? I'm going to be out of town, but have always thought that a sprint down Boylston from Mass Ave to the Garden would be good fun. Could even have people from the event play traffic guards and block the thru streets.

Otherside isn't a bar. You only get id'ed if you buy liquor.

And to paraphrase the flyer, the race is on 2/24, 3pm registration, 3:30pm start. Meet at the Statue of Leif Erikson at Charlesgate, where Newbury and Comm Ave meet. $10 entry, but that gets you a free raffle ticket to the post-race raffle and Quicksilver screening. And it's all for a great cause. So do it! Team Gigantic has spoken!

Did I mention cash prizes? And a free raffle ticket, with a chance to win a sweet handbuilt wheelset? I think I did. And what the hell, if you win the race I'll buy you a beverage (alcoholic or non) at the afterparty. So put me down on the sponsor list too.

just out of curiosity. mostly because last years MT was about 15miles, so i was thinking this years would be 15-20, and then they pull out 25miles and i was slightly dead.
its not as if whatever mileage is said will deter me from racing, i'm still going to make it regardless.
