Why do you think I wanted it? Aero bars bought me a bunch of speed. Money can make you faster.
The route is mile markers 20 to 15 and back (you turn around about a mile outside of Winters). Yep, one really hilly course. I think you'll ride this stretch on the DD.

Man, I don't have aero bars. I will feel like a total loser, won't I? Do you have one of those cool helmets, too?

Hey, there are 13 yr old kids out there. Last year a couple Bill's and my age that were just learning the whole roadbike scene. There may be a guy in hiking boots riding an old klunker rigid mtbike. There may be a Hawaii Ironman placer. You never know. It's kind of anything and everything free for all. Joe parks his truck in the famer's dirt access road, hauls out a cooler of water, hangs up a sign at the turn around and starts people every 30s secs while the rest of us mill around.

Okay, I'm sold.
What are the dates in June again? I know it's every other week, but don't remember what the start date was.Sarah

According to this, they should fall on 6/7 and 6/21.
It is 9.5 miles from our house to the start of the TT. I like to ride this as my warm-up. Then ride back to Davis for those frozen margharitas.
I hope yellow isn't reading this because she'll be in the doldrums all day.

Well, I will definitely do 6/21. 6/7 I have to be in New Hamster with clients. Some of the July/August dates may work as well.

OK, I'll put it on my calendar also. I've been focusing on distance right now and it's about time to start adding these back to the plan.
