2013 SF Spring Classic
So, the SF Spring Classic is over. What a disappointment. The route came out late the night before and unlike last year, it features no mixed terrain whatsoever. No fire road. No gravel. No broken pavement. It was just another road century. The nicest thing I have to say about the event is that the people working the rest stops were really nice. Takeaway: Won't do that one again.

Not yet...
Somehow this event went from fun to suck in just a couple of days. If this is how these events are run, this is my last.
We got another email last night. Still absolutely nothing about the route's location. Just a plug for all the good food they are planing and a vague promise of details on Saturday. Seriously, the night before the event we get the location? Like I said, this just doesn't feel like fun any more... Just stress over start/finish logistics. If I hadn't just spent two months training for this, I'd bail today and just go for a ride without these jokers.

Spring Classic?
With less than 3 days until the SF Spring Classic event and still no details on the route (other than 110 miles, 10k feet).
A 110mile circle with SF at the center covers a lot of ground (North Coast, Sacramento, Stockton, Modesto, Monterey). Many riders are enlisting the support of family and friends for logistics that day and "No, I really have no idea where we are going to finish" gets old with just a few days to go.
I'm starting to wonder if the "suspense-building" is really just disorganization.
