Tour de Park City
DISAPPOINTED, POORLY run event IMO.
Packet pick up at Spin Cycle was a cluster. Why have a pick up with a place that has 10 parking spots? Let along the inability to have the packets in alphabetical order, so you don't have to go through them stack by stack to find a name.
Route was POORLY marked.....people coming through the finish(halfs) were all over the place as far as distance..... The Half Century was to be 57 miles, I was at 60 with a slight detour. Friend was at 69....little bigger detour....
Some riders were coming back through PC, which was the original route out. Route went down a frontage road on 40, though if you didn't know that......there was no sign telling you to turn.
Feed station 2 was not even on the route, but off 50 yards and not visible as you rode by. Many riders missed it and then had to go through Browns Canyon dry......nice.....
After I finished, the only beverage they had was chocolate milk..... "They should have other drinks a little later." Yea, after waiting for my friend who took the 69 mile route, and visiting for a bit.....then as I was leaving, they started to set up the water, sports drinks, snack area..... WTF.....
I wonder if they had these issues with the Century or Super Century.....
Anyway, as I type I get more frustrated with the whole thing..... At least I was on a bike.....
