I had to miss last year (but made up for it by riding the 6 hour race), it is a great course. I am looking forward to making it out this year!

On the close order of 6.5 miles. I'll get a bit more accurate reading if you'd like.

That's close enough. I'm deciding which class to register for. Beginner doesn't feel right, but I'm not up to a 21 mile race so Sport isn't a good option either :?

First time racer? ;)

You caught me before my edit to 6.5 mile (after checking). :P

In any case, 20 miles at Addison is not like 20 miles at Stony or Maybury or even the Tree Farm. It is pretty forgiving. YMMV, of course. :D

A'yup; that's the plan. Complimentary pulled pork for all racers, and we're expecting to have sample beer from a couple local breweries.

Same as last year, really. We've got a successful formula and aren't changing it.

Also, I've got a pile of GU and Pro Gold Lubricants stuff in the basement waiting for race day. All racers will get a sample of ProLink (enough for a full chain lube or two) and a GU packet at registration.

We're finalizing things with other sponsors as well, including potential things from Velocity, Slingshot, Wickwerks, and more.
