Lake T recon and potential group ride

Hello All,

After 7 days of rain and a terrible stock market I ventured out on the bike to checkout the course. Yikes, it is in rough shape. The section on Main Street is littered with sand,gravel, rocks and other assorted washout stuff. I also noticed that the roads which as many of you know are not in great shape are worse than in years past. There are some new deep potholes which could ruin a nice set of race wheels. As we all know there is not alot of road width on places during the course I am concerned this could create problems for riders with the traffic. I would suggest all those who have the time to get out here and ride the course so you have an idea where the obstacles are so you dont have any issues on race day. By the way, Main street is not the only problem.

I would be interested in getting together with any other people next weekend to ride and run the course. Perhaps I can be coaxed to go in the water but it better get warmer in the next week or so or NO dice. This would be at a casual pace and I would probably be interested in tacking on a few more bike miles for those who are interested also snail pace.

Hopefully, this information will be helpful and some of you will take me up on the group action. If people are interested post time and date which works for you or send me a pm.

Seth
