Agree - the CAT3 prolog will certainly be missed, and that will also be

100+ less people for the Hood River economy eating out, buying gas and

sleeping in hotel rooms.

Jay,



As a newly upgraded Cat3 who raced Mt Hood as a Cat4 last year (and

cheered on a Cat3 buddy in the Prologue)... I'm disappointed I won't

have the opportunity to go anaerobic on Thursday evening! Just

completing a Prologue as part of the stage race really is a treat for

the slower cat's.    



Seldom do the lower categories get to race the volume and frequency of

the top cat's in the big stage races- Mt Hood was definitely an

exception.



Sad, but it's still overall an epic 3 days of racing...



Jeff

I am just wondering...how many potential Mt Hood Cat 3 / Master's riders

are disappointed that there is no Prologue for this stage race this

year?



In my opinion, that is what made this stage race very cool and unique...



Jay
