I know the past 2 years they've had a party Saturday night with the race on Sunday.  Right now the schedule has it on Saturday this year, but the website hasn't been updated from last year.  Anyone know any details of this year's race?  I have a crappy wedding on Saturday I'm prepared to refuse to go to, but if the race ends up on Sunday, and I find out about it before I get everyone all riled up about me skipping this wedding, I could avoid the resulting drama.

It's gonna be on Saturday August 18. I have a wedding that day too, and cannot get out of it to go to the race.

That's still a long way off, maybe they'll break up!

There are corners.  It is hot.  Prepare for both.

Age divisions...do you mean Masters racing?  Or do you mean like in triathlons?

Ah bummer, looks like I am going to miss it then.  The dust has settled, and it turns out I am going to the wedding, but I'm allowed to get a cross bike out of the deal.  As a lesson to single people, select a spouse with as few single cousins as possible, because everyone wants to get married during race season.

A lesson to married people...get divorced and cat'ing up to 3 becomes much easier.  It's all about priorities.
