I"m registered for the 40K on that Sunday, three-wheel division.    
 
Registration fee is $40 total, regardless of how many things you participate in.  The registration site is a little confusing, but you basically check the boxes for everything you want to participate in, including indicating your 2- or 3-wheel class.  Ignore the "60-64" that seems to be present after every choice - no idea why that's there.

Yes, around the outside (not the track) per my understanding.

The 20K and 40K road race allows drafting. No fairings are allowed... two wheel and three wheel recumbents are different classes, as are men and women. I'm not sure about age group classifications...

Just entered all four races. I'm going to Sebring to do the 24 hour race. If I survive, I'll see you guys there.

Adults should have fun so kids will want to grow up!

For every mile of road there's two miles of ditch.

I'd rather be sorry for something I did than for something I didn't do.

Well, I can't make it. I had Inguinal hernia surgery 21 days ago, and will have major shoulder surgery on the 14th of February. I hope everyone good luck and have fun. Get those velos out there and show case them. I hope to be there next year.

I promised myself I would never, never, ever enter his senior games again, and I'm keeping that promise.

I was trying to determine if it would be possible to ride all of the events and sent a note to DPR.  Here is the response I got back.  Saturday morning looks like you are going to clip in and basically spend the next 3 and half hour doing a sprint.  If all goes well you should be done by 1:00.  I did send a follow-up to see if it was a mass or staggered start.
 
SCHEDULE
 
March 4th(Sat)  9:00a.m.-5KTT      10:15a.m. -10KTT     11:30a.m.- 20K Road Race
  (estimated times- based  # cyclists and punctual start time at 9:00a.m. Sat morning)
 
March 5th(Sun) 9:00 a.m.-start-  
 
Racing Venue is on the East Side of the 5 mile loop

After I got the start time information from Dean in the earlier note I asked about the type of start mass or staggered.  Below it the response.
 
Men will race separately from women.
 
Men- will race by age groups 50-54, 55-59,60-64 etc. if they are large enough.
If the groups are small I might combine 2 age groups.
 
We will start the age groups at least 2 minutes apart.
