Hey Squegeeboo....

The route is always well marked at the intersections and turns and there are support vehicles patrolling as well as frequent rest stops

There will also be route maps.

I was just making a crack about being a tour guide.

I had planned on it for this year, but I ended up having previous commitments, next year shouldn't be an issue though.

Two questions -

1. How banked is the track?
2. Can I pull into the pits, & someone lift me up to change my tires & hand me a water bottle?

I'll have to check my schedule, but you may have a visitor from Missouri headed your way...

Nice banking, and we'll have support tables there. It's a very very fast, smooth surface!

Cool - just found out the ST. Louis TDC is the week before this one. Now, does anyone know if I ride in two events, do I have to get minimum donations for both?

My yard? If I owned the place, it'd be no problem, but the complex management might take exception

Here's a list of campgrounds, etc.

Thanks. Still seriously considering the ride, but have a few things up in the air at the moment. I generally have to do things like this once I get it in my head, though.

I think I have the wife convinced it's worth the trip. At least enough that she'll still be there when I get home. So I signed up. Sounds like it will be a blast on top of being for a good cause.
