Anybody heading over? I am going to give it another go. Heading over Friday afternoon to preride the start. Long range forecast is a high of 37 and snow. Dreamy.

I headed to Lansing, then down to Charlotte and across. Heading over Friday afternoon if anyone wants to do a pre-ride.

Hope to meet a few of you

Hope to meet a few of you guys there on race day! I am racing SS expert and since we won't have the team kits yet I plan on wearing a primal "ritz" tuxedo top jersey. I will be riding a flat black quiring q ball. I always enjoy meeting new SS'ers and if you pass me out on the road feel free to say hi. and, if you are so inclined, I would really enjoy sucking off your wheel for as long as I can hold on.

Chris...

I'll be running 42x18 on my CX bike. That is the gear I ran last year. I am planning to preride Friday and may try a 17 on the back, but 18 was all I could push on a few of the climbs last year.
