Judy,
I could really side either way. If it's cut to 3 days, I'll probably sign
with relief. If it stays at 4, I'll feel extra proud to have met the
challenge. But... I do suspect the extra day off from work will keep some
women from racing. It's hard to justify 2 days off work, especially if it's
unpaid, for a bike race. If that IS the reason some of you are not racing,
please speak up! I'd rather race 3 days with a good field size than 4 days
with only a few of us.
BTW, the free t-shirt, pint glass and poster "bribe" will be the reason this
procrastinator will sign up by May 7th. ;-) Thanks, Chad.
