Having problems with message search?
I will set up as many Bars as you want, I know a lot of the folks along the way and to set up a bar every few miles would not be a problem. Part of the rules of the TT will be you have to consume XX number of drinks or there will be a time penalty!!

Time Trial Routes for 2007
We could toss the stop watch and use a calendar instead!
What's that about getting ripped in the last 8 miles? Are there a lot of bars along the route?

I thought about the P-burg 21 mile loop....that would
be what? A 34k TT? Just like the pros! And on the last 8 miles you can really
rip it.

The airport is looking sketchy for this year. Lamar and Grizz rode it
yesterday and it has some nasty bumps and asphalt issues apparently.
Most likely it will not be a good spot this year. It had some rough
spots last year, but it has deteriorated apparently. Probably trying to
keep those darn cyclists and runners from slowing down all of the
traffic out there. They are such a nuisance!
Grizz was talking about a route off of 92 that we was going to map out.
The more options the better.

The airport is out for me.........too far from work or home. I know
you need to go with location that is best for the majority, but the
further north you go, the more interested I'd be in participating.

To All You Racers:
Concerning the proposal to change TT routes this year, I encourage
anyone and everyone to try to identify a route or two for consideration.
We can arrange email rides to try them out and decide on one at the
April meeting. I have reservations concerning traffic and turns on any
open road course . Riding a time trial would presume not stopping,
though there are stop signs on most or all of the road courses we could
imagine. Cross-traffic is also a concern at all intersections. These
are not concerns at the airport, which would be a big advantage of
staying there. So, I also encourage everyone to remember safety when
plotting courses and when the time comes to decide on one.
After having said all that, I have identified several possible routes.
The first is 5 miles. The traffic is not too bad in the evening except
for near the baseball fields on 100th Street, though the speed limit
there is 25. It has many hills and no real flat sections. The surfaces
are in pretty decent shape. I think the parking lot is gravel, though.
I've ridden the roads there many times, though not as a time trial
circuit. I suspect that 5 miles all out around this course would have
our tongues dragging on the ground!
- Start at Platte Purchase Park (at about Platte Purchase Road and 104th
Street)
- 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
require two laps. The roads are good and most are empty. There are
some good hills in it, too. The intersection of Barry & Brighton is a
4-way stop. Parking is on the street on the old Barry Road bridge over
I-435.
- Start at Sam Ray Road and Barry (old Barry Road bridge over I-435)
- South on Sam Ray to Barry Road
- 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 would be turning right from 144th onto Mt. Olivet. The only
parking is on a gravel road (136th west of Virginia) or in Animal's
driveway. Animal would like this one because it's right outside his
door. Again, the hills will have you sucking air (or just sucking)!
- Start at 136th & Virginia
- North on Virginia to 144th Street
- East on 144th Street to Mt. Olivet Road
- South on Mt. Olivet to 136th Street
- West on 136th to Virginia
------------
The next is 6.15 miles long with mostly gradual hills and flats in
Dover's back yard. There is a rough chip and seal surface for about 1.5
miles on 132nd Street, but the rest of the roads are decent. Parking
would be on the street in a new subdivision at 120th and Sherman Road.
- Start at NE 120th and Sherman Road
- North on Sherman to 132nd Street
- East on 132nd to Eastern Road
- South on Eastern to 120th Street
- West on 120th Street to Sherman Road
------------
See you out there.
