Welcome to the Tue, 05/24/2011 – 06:00 edition of Off Topic! You are looking at the next step in the evolution of VCN, the Off-Topic page. Have you ever been frustrated because you had a burning desire to call someone a sandbagger and could only hope to be timely by posting your comment to a photo gallery page or on a page describing a charity ride?
Well, your prayers have been answered! You can post your comment from the home page and it magically comes to rest here with the other orphans from the land of Misfit Comments. The page gets refreshed every day, but not to worry! Each day’s page will be archived and treasured, so you can look back on past pages with pride, shame or disgust-depending on how the day’s conversation went. So post away! We’ve got an internet to fill up.
As of now tonight’s race is on as scheduled. Another announcement will be made by approximately 4:15PM.

Why did the start/finish change back to the old one at FBF this year? Just curious.
When the orange barricades were erected the FBF officials told us no cars would be allowed inside them and we were instructed to use the back side of the course by the parking lots for the S/F. I did not want to have it moved there for the following reasons: it’s the narrowest part of the course, there’s a lot of car activity going in and out of the parking lots and the most important reason – there are too many mosquitos. This year the FBF officials said we could return to the “old” S/F as a test. So far so good. It’s a much bettet and safer location for us.

Thanks. I prefer it back to this original location too.
