Boom!

Breaking out by 5 year age ranges, I counted 3 in mine for the TT stuff. It didn't go well for me (and even had a crash this weekend!), but I had a good time. (Edit: by good time I mean fun experience, not fast). Other than 2 races this summer, my whole season has been garbage and I've made some big mistakes, but it has been fun anyway.
At least for Colorado - I still put forth the "Proximity to Boulder" theorem. The further you get, the less participation in races there will be - at least in my experience for Cx and very limited observation for road.
