Re: River City Bicycles Mt Tabor Series Update

Here are 2 alternate routes that were kindly sent to me earlier:

http://veloroutes.org/bikemaps/?route=8444 Lap: 1.6-miles, 401-Ft of
climbing

http://veloroutes.org/bikemaps/?route=8446 Lap: 1.9-miles, 309-Ft of
climbing

I am thinking of mixing it up this year--maybe we do different routes, twice
each, over six races? Have to see what the Parks Dept. says.
