The Gainesville 2010 TT Challenge Series
Weather permitting, the next installment in the 2010 TT Challenge Series will be held on Saturday, July 31st at 8AM (if the weather is hellish we will hold it on Sunday the 1st).  We will meet at DeSoto Park in Hague, and roll out to the TT course as a group.  Mr. Erker, this is your chance to race for free.

About the 2010 Gainesville TT Challenge
The TT Challenge is a 9.3 mile out and back time trial.  It is open to anyone that rides a bicycle.  During the series, an Individual Time Trial will be held once a month until the end of the series in September.  We will record your times and at the end of each event the results will be published.  At the end of the series we will announce the results of the best times, best averages, and course record.  The overall winner in each category will be given a handy certificate signifying that they got an official "Atta Boy (or Girl!)", nothing else.

There will be three categories for the challenge:

Aero -- This can be a road bike with clip-on aerobars, or a TT bike, aero helmet, and skin suit, as long as it is legal by UCI rules.

Merckx -- Road bike only, no clip-on's, no aero helmets, no skinsuits.

Anything Goes -- This is for anything that is pedal driven.  Trikes, recumbents, what-have you.  If you can pedal it, you can enter it.

There will also be an optional fourth category, "I want to ride a time trial, but I don't want anyone to know my official time".  We will not record your time if you're in this category.
