Mark your calendars. The first edition of the Epic Mountain Rides will be this Sat (5/27). We will leave Vic's at either 7:30 or 8:00. I will confirm the departure time a bit later this week, depending on the feedback I receive.
The route: Not exactly the Giro, but pretty good nonetheless. Flagstaff, Gross Rez, Coal Creek, Peak to Peak, Eldora, Brainard Lake, Ward, Boulder. Of course there will be regroups at various points. This is not a race, but rather an opportunity to get in some great climbing and build solid endurance.
Let me know if your in.
Jay
Sun - Coal Miners Crit
Race, or tried to race, the Men 35+ Sun (Storage Tek) Coal Miners Classic Criterium.

Jay and Henrik(Did the 45+ 1 hour before) also raced in the 35+. Dave did the 3s later on in the day.
Start - Had to weave around 3 riders in the first 10 meters that couldn't clip in. So much for 35+ being more skilled then 3s. Maybe the top riders are, but not the mid-back of the pack racers.
I didn't quite have the Power to Weight ratio yet for the Hill on the course. Stayed in the pack for a few laps and then rode with 2 other guys. We got lapped about 35 minutes in and then I did a lap with the pack until I blew. Got in with the 3rd group for a lap but I was blown...
Now resting up for the Tour of Utah / Thanksgiving Point Omnium-SR. Hoping for some flat courses.
