Starts Tuesday in Philly and ends in Pittsburgh on the 29th. The climbing in central/west central should be great! I think Slipsteam (now Garmin) will have a team participating in the race. Goes through Latrobe [birth & resting place of my parents]. Gorgeous country. My DH and I are tempted to play hookey and watch it when it passes through Carlisle.

Anyone going to see it in person? It will be on Versus 26-28 June, 6pm.

No, I found out yesterday that all my free time needs to be spent training (http://forums.teamestrogen.com/showthread.php?t=24325) :o

You aren't too far, though, are you? That's the pits. Maybe next year!!!

i was trying to get my b-i-l to join me in volunteering for the time trial in philly, but that didn't work. now i'm totally thinking of playing hooky also to either watch somewhere along the route on wednesday or thursday. i wish i could be in pittsburgh (my hometown) over the weekend but that's a no go.

My training schedule has hill repeats for tomorrow (day 1 of the Tour of Penna) - looks like I'll just happen to do those repeats around 9:00...just in time to finish up and watch the start of a few of the TTs!!! I wish I could be there in the evening for the crit, but I have to work! :(
