This is the ride which Floridians think is so hilly LoL.
I'm registered Grand Masters and will probably be 40 minutes behind the main male open group.
I rode the course April 21. There were a few spots of newly dumped, deep gravel but the vast majority of the course was hard packed and very dusty. It should be fast if one chooses a clean line.
Not sure there is a point except to say I'm really looking forward to this.
It's a great ride! I've done it a couple of times when it was held in August. Hopefully, it won't be as hot in June. The 56 mile ride is hilly--and I'm from Atlanta. There are some really good climbs in the last 10 miles. The year I did the 56 mile race it was 98-99 degrees and brutal. The 35 mile option is my favorite loop of them all--enough distance for this track/velodrome racer but not too much.
