    Should I make your race my first race ever? I still don't know if I can get over the hurdles in my mind about bike fashion and elitism. "I'm just a poor kid who's never even tried clipless pedals."

    I think I'll do it if I don't have a colligate race.

          That's strange bc the guys from St Olaf want to use my race and add a TT in Rochester for that weekend.

            Interesting, it's possible that things have changed that I don't know about...I'm not really in the loop. That would actually be pretty cool, closer to home and easier for my parents to come.

            Yup, looks like there was a pretty good mix up with who was actually supposed to be scheduling their race. I guess there are some people protesting it because it's not on pavement. Any tips for good tires to use on gravel? I guess they were discussing limiting the tire size to 700x28 in the collegiate category to ease any protests of unfairness about equipment.

              NOt worry - the nays must have outdown or at least out scream the yahs - eg, ie - no collegiate class at Oxbow. I'm actually a little bummed - but it will mean less work for me...

                Bummer. They'd better not just full out cancel it, that'll be the 3rd one out of only 5 races. If they do I'll come and do cat 5 at oxbow.

                  I think sean is working on something else, but it's getting really late to throw something together.

                    Yeah, that's what I was thinking, I'm interested to see what happens. I like knowing that I can race that day no matter what.

              I did it last year on 700x23c Conti GP3000's. I think it would depend on the weather. If it's dry, road skinny tires are fine.
