Tour de Gruene / Time Trial
Oct 17^th, 2007, 3:25pm

This looks interesting, on the heels of the Reclining Flyers recent activity.... Tour de Gruene has a 32- or 42- mile "rally" option, but also features a two-man time trial through a 27 mile course, that has people all the way from Cat I to beginners participating... Top time last year appears to have been just over an hour... (!)

Ya know, Greg, you and Mark Leuck paired up would kick serious butt down there....
