Team Time Trial on the track at Road Atlanta. That should be a sight - and a great party!

Yay, Savannah and Statesboro. I'll get to visit 2 days worth without hardly leaving town. I'm still a little surprised that the traditional Macon and Rome didn't get start/stops.
Looking forward to a great time.

You know it. I will be there for that one. That's a fun track in a car. Lots of elevation change should make the TT interesting. I wanna see how the roadies handle Turn 10A/B and Turn 12...

Road course - eh... Let's go across the street to Lanier Speedway and just run 'em in circles 'till they drop! Sorry, I'm a roundy-rounder. Road Atlanta reeks of methanol and brie.

As opposed to Fried Chicken and Gasoline ?
You can only watch them turn left so many times before you pass out.

They could ride down Hwy 80 into Savannah, go down Bay St., then over the Talmedge Bridge onto Hutchison Island, then run laps on the abandoned road course there, which is a maintained public road. I'd want a Kevlar jersey to ride around Savannah.
