Tour of CA Stage 2 (Tuesday)

Grrrrrrr! I just got a call from our on-scene reporter on Sierra Road, jobob, and the phone went dead! Pooh.
She and LeeBob apparently ran into our friend, Buzz, down there. One of the highlights of Sunday's trip was seeing a long ago friend and his dad. We knew him when he was a wee sprout of 19 wrenching at the LBS. He is now the head of the Nautilus Institute. Hadn't talked to him in a long time, but tracked him down via the world wide web at Christmas and then, there he was, getting off BART ahead of us. Kharma.
I did get enough info to know the racers are 30-40 mins out. Maybe Reporter Jobob will call back after she's made goo-goo groupie eyes at all the racer boys.

Sierra looks truly nasty. On San Jose Mercury News website there is an interactive thing about the race with a video of some guys climbing Sierra. It's triple chevrons almost the whole way on Krebs map.
