  1. I'll be attending the road race on October 12. Since I don't know my way around the city, I'd
    appreciate suggestions about where along the course I might find places for food and drink (good
    coffee, I hope). Thanks for the help!

  2. There's a few good coffee shops outside of the race course, the best place that's close to the
    downtown area to eat is Hess Village. It runs between Main and King St, and it's just inside the
    race course (sort of) As for coffee shops along the course, you'll probably find some downtown,
    and there's a Tim Hortons at the far end (on the mountain) of the TT course at Mohawk and
    Scenic. Hamilton has probably about 60 Tim Hortons shops though, so you should never be too far
    away from one.

    Enjoy the race, I was just down to watch the practice laps this morning, this is going to
    be amazing!

    Steve,

    Any suggestions on car parking logistics? My wife and I are driving up from Buffalo (we live in NC)
    on Thursday to catch as much of the TT as we can, and of course we'll be watching most of the other
    events through Sunday. I imagine we'll have to park a bit away and walk or take a shuttle/bus? We're
    staying at a hotel near the falls.

    Regards, Wayne

    Is there any site with detailed profile and analysis of the course? has the course been raced
    on before?

    thanks Alexander

    The site has been mentioned many times already. The course was raced on for Nationals at the end of
    June, and that's the first time, required to validate the course for worlds.
