Wish I'd seen your post - I was there with my daughter for the women's race. If you noticed a preschooler with a pink helmet and purple Specialized puppy bike, that was April. She was awed by the race - 'WOW mama, they're going SO FAST!' - but then she got scared by how just fast it was and refused to be in the kids' race. I could not convince her that the kids would be biking much slower than the professional women racers, so we left.
