I will desperately try to make May 7th on my Centurion IronMan. Crashed it hard last year, recently repaired, so 25 mellow miles should be just about right.

I like this idea. Saw it on CR but now there is a poster! Miles of driving but I want a poster.

Excellent Graphics- quite a bit of work there.
while placing on the Calendar... the Baylis Birthday Ride is on a Saturday
so is the North SD County stage

Not sure if this signup is for all 3 stages but would be nice if single stages can be entered, as 3 consective weekend commitment not easy from many.

I am aiming for just the third but not sure a CAAD4 qualifies as vintage. If it does, I can rush to complete the build.

I hope there's enough recovery time between stages for those vintage SoCal road warriors to refresh.

Looks to be a great set of rides but a little more time would have helped more entrants plan these in the schedules

I live 20 states over, so the rides are not in the cards for me... but I want to double down on the comments for the posters. The graphic art work on them is quite awesome.
