The routes have been revealed! It is so exciting to know that my regular training routes will be used for these races, and gives me a new enthusiasm for my riding (just needs to get a little warmer, please!)
If you ever wanted to watch a world class international race (or 12) but never could get to Europe, here's your chance.

And yes, I will be renting out my house for a *modest* sum...
VeloNews has a good writeup: http://velonews.competitor.com/2014/...-riders_318041
Nice! :)
Having moved recently to DC, I am very excited about this and I will have to visit Richmond to ride the route at least a couple of times. Tulip: I just may have to rent your house ;)
Last year, I was really bummed to miss the cyclocross world championships in Louisville when the elite races were rescheduled from Sunday to Saturday. I was so ready: tickets, hotel, friends tagging along for the 5 hour drive from Chicago, dinner reservations... so sad! [if you did not see this nice video of the races that day, watch it!]
Getting to RVA is a lot easier--2 hours by train, $30 each way. Come down and ride! The route practically goes by my house, and the TTT starts very close by. It's going to be quite exciting. The US Collegiate chamionships are coming this May and will use the same courses. RVA will be a bike-centric place afterall.Quote:
