The greatest weekend of all is here. By that, i mean the weekend when everyone departs for Vermont and i can totally go and strava bomb everything without anyone seeing me being towed around by a motorcycle. But besides that big race in VT, which many only do as an excuse to go eat at American Flatbread (opening in tribeca this fall, holy sheet!), there are some other things happening around town…
On Sat, there is the Tour of High Bridge in NJ, which looks like a pretty awesome course (vid here). Out in Amish country, there is the Millport Road Race.
Come Sun, there is the Mangoseed Graveyard series at FBF.
And on Mon, you can do the Olde Mill Inn Tour of Basking Ridge or hang out at Kissena for the Annual Labor Day Track Meet.
Good luck everyone, have a safe and fun labor day.

You’re all watching each other post about Dopestrong and I snuck in with a first* at 7:00pm!
*tristan headset is dq’d for a too-long rant about a race he has no intention of doing.
even worse…
The schedule on bikereg states, “see event flier”. Navigate to it, and you’ll get a different order of events than is listed on bikereg:
http://www.tourofhb.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/2012-Tour-of-High-Bridge-Flier-with-Prizes.doc
..and it’s poorly formatted if you open it on anything other than Microsoft.
However, there’s a “Start Times” link that shows a start order different from the event flier.
Unfortunate.
