Don't fuck around like that Whitey.
I did some recon today. The course is raceable. There is a gigantic pile of tree debris occupying much of the stretch between turns 1 and 2, but there's enough clearance to ride by it at high speed and in large groups.

Viva!

Nice.  Here's hoping our esteemed race organizers see it that way.
KCC bonfire could clear that up.

soooo...what's the deal with Floyd?  I hear rumor of a series starting May 7th?  Is that Charlie or WS/United or neither?
God Tito. Get on facebook. Charlie I. 

lol - Regional Orthopedics Race Series.  Between that and the Chamois ButtMasters, Charlie's races are becoming positively geriatric.

And Michael, I PURPOSELY left Facebook.  Because it SUCKS.
I'm likely in for tomorrow night for the 5s. 
So I have a friend in town who wants to race FBF tomorrow, she's a cat 2 on the road, in CA (so she knows how to go uphill pretty good), I wanted to race tomorrow but I sadly have a work event I cannot miss tomorrow evening--damn job keeps gettin' in the way of racing.

Who's riding out tomorrow evening to FBF for the 7pm races?
where to sign up? doesnt seem to appear in bike reg?  am considering going.
Sign up is at the race. You won't get shut out. Just show up early.
my recollection is that they started earlier than 7 in the beginning of the season.  what time for cat 4?
(never mind, found the site).  regional orthopedics is new sounding to me)
If I can get out of work early (looking good for that) I will ride down and race. 

Does anyone know if the bike path that connects the end of Bedford Ave to FBF was ever fixed (or if it survived Sandy?)

if you can get there by 5:45, you can help with registration and then race for free. Contact Charlie I

cibike@aol.com

BUMP! - Charlie has exactly 0 volunteers at this point. Please shoot him a message if you can get down there and help with registration. 

I'm out for this week, and the way my summer schedule is shaping up possibly the whole series.  I am not excite.
:(
It is looking like I may be able to join the series starting in the second half of May. Who is down for the Cat 3/4 races?
I'll miss most of the May races as I'll be in Europe, but I'll be a weekly regular in the 3/4 field starting June.
I'll be at GAP 5:45 to roll out.
I'm able to ditch out of work a little earlier than expected, so I'm heading down at 5 to help Charlie out with registration if anyone wants to roll then.

Adam - what's your cell? shoot me a message when you leave - I'm hoping to leave at the same time but won't know for awhile.

FYI, Al's leaving from Ride at around 5pm
Mike -- Just shot you a text.

Vlad -- I live around the block from Ride, so I might meet Al there if he doesn't mind the company. 
Damn, can't make it tonight. Photos of the course please!
i'm in for the 3/4's...h:-)

Looks totally rideable. Make sure your teatnaus shots are up to date.
