this weekend:
The Civil War Century.  105 miles



It has been raining non stop all week and while this race is rain or shine, I'm wondering how accessible these roads are going to be. Also, the pre race email stated that the roads will probably be too wet to mark and riders will have to rely on cue sheets.  AWESOME.

By looking at this map, one would think that things are pretty smooth sailing when you hit mile 62, right? Somehow these maps always lie to me.

Either that, or it will be pouring the whole time and we'll call it quits after a couple hours.

Even if we end up doing a shorter route, this ride will still be fantastic with the scenery.  It's so much easier to do long distances on supported rides because of the plentiful fuel and company.
