Riders,

Gather your teams for a Team Time Trial.  We already have two teams together, and I'd like to know if there are more so we can generate some interest.  The categories are designed for flexibility and ease of getting a team together.  This is a one-off, post TT series, just for fun.  If there is some interest, maybe we'll do it again some time.  I chose not to make it an "Anything Goes" option on the usual time trial series, so all the soloists can participate if they like.  I'll need two volunteers, by the way.

Saturday, 5 November 2011
Two times around the Brooker Course = 19 miles (three turnarounds)
Meet at DeSoto Park near The Hague at 8:00 a.m., leave 8:15 a.m.
First team off at 9:30 a.m., likely two minute intervals between teams to avoid passing scenarios
Usual TT Course, Brooker, Florida.
Course at http://www.mapmyride.com/route/us/fl/gainesville/908126747151371702.
Meeting place at http://www.gccfla.org/ridelocdesoto.html

CATEGORIES:

"Any Three"--this category team may include three riders of any kind.  Two riders must finish.  Two-person teams can do this Category, but they must finish both riders.

"Co-Ed"--three riders, at least one must be a woman rider.  Two riders must finish, one must be the woman rider.

"Women's Only"--Two woman riders.  Both riders must finish

No aero equipment is allowed.  While many of us are extremely capable, this is a dangerous position in a group event that requires hours of practice with teammates, and we want to make the race accessible to everyone.

Per "Sallot/Doug" rules, no prizes but glory, no entry fees, no numbers, etc . . . And No Littering.

Please practice with your teammates several times before the day of the event, as you will be making three potentially dangerous turnarounds on the course.  No support vehicles.  No headpieces/ear pieces of any kind.  And no radio communications between riders.

Let us know if you're coming!
