Re: race tomorrow.
Anymore info about that. It starts at that park (can't recall), ends on the island ... how about start time, registration fee, etc?
I won't even ask about prizes unless someone knows what DFL wins.

Traditionally DFL prize is training wheels.
Registration fee is usually $5...won't be more than 10

is anyone here for sure going? I wouldn't mind going to spectate, but I'm trying to take it easy on my knees so I may try not to ride at all.
Keith: I think this was asked by someone else recently, but do you have any 18t cogs at the shop?

I do think you may have more alley cat wins than any other. I wonder who might be able to confirm that. *rubbing shoulders with greatness we are*

Probably not. Bit too sketchy to take the Lemond for that. In theory it would be entertaining to watch Keith drop me in traffic, but that would last for all of two seconds before he'd be out of sight.

Either Keith or T.J. should make an appearance at this race - you two are the only ones w/ any hope of actually doing well (Mitch, how are you in traffic?) ... I'm just going to try to make it out for comedic effect, but the intimidation factor is through the roof.

I am not sure who is showing as far as fast guys go but look for one of Jim Kuz..Dave Byers..Kevin Black. Some of the recent winners are out of town but if any of these guys show up they are the ones to stick with.

Diaz....man that cat was fast...whooosh. ^^^ and yes those legs of the Kevin...once he spun up it was hopeless^^^ Word to Keith's tactics, like many races, the winner generally doesn't lead the whole way. I never how how the check points are going to work. If it's an intersection non messers are right in there. If it's addresses then the messer MAY have a slight leg up. But like Dirk Gently says "I just follow someone who looks like they know where they are going and I eventually get to me destination." IF the finish is the island .... it's gonna be a sprint finsh as you'll mostly all gather at the ferry dock. Save some gas.
My wife is outta town, so I'll be hangin with my little/not-so little daughters and doing stuff here and there. Otherwise I'd totally be down for it. hmmmm Maybe I'll come down for the start with the kids.

Oh and if I haven't said it already, after going to FC I really REALLY want to ride the Figure8 track.
How is the location of the CMWC decided? Does anyone know? I seem to remember it being the winner of a competition or something.. but I could be getting that mixed up with the SSWC.
I wonder if having the CMWC here again would bring out the Figure 8.. or vice-versa I wonder if bringing out the Figure 8 could bring the CMWC back here.
