Thanks guys! It sounds silly, but its nice having a better looking USAC results page....hopefully I'll add a first to that.
It was intimidating driving 6 hours up north to race. NCNCA probably has the biggest road race calendar in the US and an 'economy' of climbers; you can actually upgrade via that path which creates a talent pool. In SoCal we don't really have that (all the 'skinny guys' are talented across the board).
I may come up for Winters; Its really up to the wife. She's been travelling for work every week.
