There are a series of races in Upstate NY in 2005 that you won't want to miss.
The Battenkil-Roubaix - 4/16 - Salem, NY. The name says it all. Come enjoy the finest scenery in the East and endure the most challenging course around.
The Balloon Festival Classic - 6/18 - Cambridge, NY. 300+ raced in 2004. 500 expected in 2005. Register early. Unique course. Lots of cash awards.
The NYS TT Championships - 6/18 - Stillwater, NY. 40k flat to rolling along the Hudson River. Many categories including juniors, retro, recumbent.
We along with JD Bilodeau, who volunteered when the officials assignments were totally screwed up, were the officials at Cobleskill and ran the kids race. Dieter and Co. ran a quality event, and other than major problems with official assignments that weren't their fault ran a great event with a food tent, entertainment, and much public support. I think this group of people are going to run a lot of quality events in upstate NY and really are committed to great races. Bill C
