I very much appreciate Jeff offering 60+ their own field, I believe that
this group will see the largest growth of any other age cat. in the next
several years. All those 50+ will soon see 60. I will be there to help fill
out the field and help our group. As for preference, I think 33 miles is
plenty for our age group, Except for several of the 60+,a number of us are
going to struggle. I am just easing back into racing as I had to back off
from hard training and riding last year due to leg issues. I will do my best
and hang in as long as I can. See everyone Sunday, rain or shine!

then me! The issue at hand is getting enough of our most seasoned racers
out there.....go 60+ racers. And if Scarich is throwing down and going to

his mind games already, only "100 miles a week" HaHa...sorry Steve :)

When I race with the 60 and over folks, I will let them choose the distance. I will go as far as I can, and if I can't race the whole distance, so be it. You guys should pick what you like.

I have considered driving the four hours from Bend to Banana Belt to be pack filler (I only ride 100 miles a week), but will not drive over not knowing what distance I am riding. I don't mind racing with younger guys, but I want to get my money's worth (:
