I just received my confirmation letter. I am really baffled. How can you change the rules concerning the frame styles at this last moment. There was nothing in the original rules stating that Time Trial Frames, or Aerobars, could not be used in the time trials. Time Trials, and Road Racing, are 2 different genres of cycling. Both require frame styles to accommodate each event. I am totally blown away, as I am sure other TT athletes are.

Another great day of training on the ole fat tire fitness bike. The early spring winds are dying down, and the pavement is heating up. Seems like but a few weeks ago, I was multi-layered, and concentrating on the cold weather survival. Hydration and acclimation!!!!! Stay healthy my cycling friends.

For all my 60+ road hammering, and TT friends. I booked a room across the street in Quantico. Besides my bikes, I will also bring and assortment of tools, lubricants, and pumps. I realize many of you are coming from various points afar, and may be short of such equipment, so just look for the old guy with long hair and shaved legs, if you need a blast of air, or a tool or two.
