Thanks for the clinic date. Is it open to "all?" Also - from talking with the builders of the Green Monster in Louisville, it's not something that does a lot of moving. There's more to them than you think. The Derby Cup FO never leaves the grounds.

The Clinic is the Sept. 13th not sure the times.
Not sure if it will be at the clinic.
I know it being built in pieces and needs final assembly on site.
I don't think he is planing to use it at every race.

I am hoping that it will be ready for the cross clinic. Assuming there is a cross clinic this year.

That is great news! Too bad it wont be a UCI this year, but I guess the fly over is the next best thing. Especially at Waterford. That will make the course more interesting. BTW, will we be able to preride the course before the race, so we can get the feel for what a fly over is all about?

Yeah, the fly overs are fun - especially for the spectators and course designers. Don think, just go! (I've seen a few people frozen on top for the first time, unable to roll down!) And good luck building it ... fly overs are a lot of HARD work (and expensive) according to the folks in Louisville.

Sadly won't be a UCI, but will be a 2 day.
This year they wanted more money for UCI so Robert chose to build a fly over instead with the money.
Fun for everyone! lol

"Nails have started to be pounded for Michigan's first fly over. "
Now more than ever I'm bummed that we can't be there for the big UCI weekend.

Uh oh. I guess I better get over my fear of heights before the first race!

:)

Thanks for the support for the Ithaca GP! Glad you all enjoy the event, as I enjoy putting it on! TONS of swag to give away this year!

As for the band, that seems day to day. Being that they all have "real" jobs there are some conflicts still...we'll see!
