Solvang TT - May 20

If you wish to join, a ride is planned from AG to Solvang on the day of the time trial in Solvang. The ride is approximately 70 miles. First half flat, and the second half bumpy. The ride start is 7am. Many of the riders will be hanging with their families at the time trial and enjoying the ToC scene. So the return trip will be determined upon the interest by other riders and your response to this post.

The Solvang TT stage is a great way for cycling enthusiasts to witness the color of the race and really see what goes on in the support of the pro cycling field. You will see equipment and team support that is world class. Not to mention see a very pivotal stage in the race.

For some of you that require a shower in the end, you may pay for a shower head at the local YMCA. For those more manly types, you can wipe down in the parking lot and load and lock your gear. Not sure of the interest at this point, so will not leave those details until we hear some responses.

So far, Rudy Bachmann, Korey Carroll, and yours truly are riding. Let me know if you are interested.

If you read this, pray for the safety of my father (Jeff) who is one of the lead moto marshalls in the race for the entire stage race. He leaves Friday for Tahoe, CA for his 5th tour contribution. Thankful for all their dedication to keeping the road safe for these riders...

Take care all,
