    While the exact route is still being decided, it's time to get serious
    about Ride The Lobster. Get your teams together, get your equipment
    together, get your qualifying rides done, and start getting into
    shape.

    The stages will average 200K (except the Time Trial), and will get
    progressively more difficult as the race progresses, and the course
    takes us further north.

    A week and a half ago, Nathan Hoover, Andy Cotter, Irene Genelin,
    Darren Bedford, and myself, Max DeMilner, were invited to Nova Scotia
    to get soem details work out, and get a sense for the terrain from a
    unicyclist's perspective. We also attended promotional events in many
    of the towns stages will begin or end.

    'Check out my gallery' (http://tinyurl.com/2acacg)

    Nathan Hoover has also posted some pictures (featuring photos from the
    Cape Breton stage) 'on Smugmug'
    (http://nhoover.smugmug.com/gallery/3495421#197023316)

    More details to follow. Get your qualifying rides done!
    Cheers!

    Max

    Max
    Thanks for the links to all the pics. I've been up there before and am
    getting way psyched to go again in June! It should be a blast.

    half of March off to ride Uninam. 🙂

    Just explain why RTL is so special. It's the longest, most grueling
    unicycle race in HISTORY. There's no certainly that this will ever
    happen again. You can't miss it.

    Or you could come up with some crack about having a couple mistresses
    in the neighborhood, so it would be better for her if you were in Nova
    Scotia for a week.
