I am looking forward to the National RR championship on Tuesday. For us in the 45-49 group we will do just under 60 miles and more than 6,000 feet of climbing. I think that this race will completely detonate on the 2nd or third time (out of four) up the "big hill". It is almost one km of 14 percent grade. For you geeks out there we did a "test run" at just about race pace. 2:35 at 500 watts. Here are a couple of pictures to whet your appetite.
BTW, I can think of a couple of Nor-Cal riders that will wish they were here when they hear about this course. Harlan....

It looks like it stays in the general vicinity of the Seven Springs ski area. Maybe 400' or so of climbing per lap from the profile.
