Course Direction. Thanks to those who voted for their favorite course
direction. A slight majority favored the counter-clockwise course direction
with the uphill finish. So, for Banana Belt 2011 course directions will be 2
races counter-clockwise (with uphill finish) and 1 race clockwise (with
downhill finish). For BB#3, we will stick with our originally posted course
direction of clockwise with the finish in the same location as BB#1.
