The closes one to me was rained out here. The other one would require driving 100 miles to get to the start so I've never looked into it. In my prime when I was riding more miles in a younger body I never road more that 50 miles in one day. Now at 66 with a lot of years of not riding I am thrilled to have done 21 miles in 1 hr 30 minutes. Also I did 95% in the drops with minimal hand numbness. I have a lot more core strength then when I started, so those muscles are taking some of the weight off my hands. It's a real plus for riding in the drops to have lost 40 pounds. When I first tried I didn't like my thighs pounding my gut So Thor if you put the hammer down on 6/11&12 give us a shout here at DU Bicycling on the 13th.
