Nail
This not related to Time trials but wanted to drop a note about myself, Mike
casper and Steve Yeary. As you have probably read we had to pull out of the
Brew to Brew run do to a date change for a Triathlon we are signed up for in
Ft Worth Tx. Hope it did not mess up anything with you and your daughter. We
wernt thrilled with the change but did not have any choice.

>The first is 5 miles. The traffic is not too bad in the evening except for

>- Start at Platte Purchase Park (at about Platte Purchase Road and 104th

>- South on Platte Purchase to NW 100th Street
>- West on NW 100th Street to Green Hills Road
>- North on Green Hills Road to NW 108th Street
>- East on NW 108th Street to Platte Purchase Road
>- South on Platte Purchase and return to the park.
>----------------------
>Here's one with great parking (a school) and a good variety of hills and
>flats. The road surfaces are good and the traffic is decent for the most
>part. It's only 4 miles, but a hefty climb makes up for the shortness. We
>could always do two laps, if we dare.

>- Start at Northview school at NE 92nd Street and Indiana Road
>- West on 92nd to Indiana
>- North on Indiana to 100th Street
>- East on 100th Street to Staley Road
>- Southeast on Staley to Brighton Road
>- South on Brighton to 92nd Street (steep climb)
>- West on 92nd back to the school
>---------------------
>Here's another shorty (3 miles) in that same neighborhood that would

>in it, too. The intersection of Barry & Brighton is a 4-way stop. Parking

>- West on Barry to Brighton
>- North on Brighton to 92nd
>- East on 92nd to Sam Ray
>- South on Sam Ray to Barry Road bridge

>------------------------
>The next route is 6 miles. It starts with a flat first mile, a huge
>downhill, a long climb followed by a long drop, and finishes with a couple
>miles of brutal hills. The road surfaces range from very good asphalt to
>chip and seal, but are OK over all. The most tricky part of the route
