I'm in as long as I can scrounge up the funds as well as the vacation time. 55 sounds about what I'm comfortable doing right now.
JP, I had a challenging time keeping up with you this past Sunday and I could see that you were even holding out and waiting for me at times already. Obviously, I still have quite a ways to go training wise.
If I go, still on the fence on renting a road bike or bringing mine. They have Trek Madone 1.5 rentalsw which I think aren't too bad but bringing my own bike is definitely more ideal. Any idea on the easiest/most economical way to ship bikes? I read somewhere Amtrak Express is a good way to ship bikes.
