Hey Alex,
It completely slipped my mind, but I'll be at work until 6. We're working on booking a room at the Sheraton also, so any other guys coming with shouldn't have problems grabbing a room.

OK well I was intending to leave in the morning to get there for a group ride in the afternoon....
The only way this will work is if you ride with Rookie Dan at night and pascal and the guy from Brock go with us in the morning.

OK everyone this race is coming up quick!
Dar2121, can you meet at the second cup on Gordon and College on Saturday morning for 9:00am? If needed I will also be driving and will be there with my car also.
Adrian, if you are not able to go till night then rookie dan can grab you on th way but he is leaving way later.
This will only work though if Pascal and the guy from brock come with us saturday morning. Is that ok? If not then you guys from UoT may be out of luck

Yup 9AM Sat at the Second Cup. Whose car is taking bikes? Mine doesn't have a bike rack. I just stuffed it into the back seats.

Awesome guys! I have a rack that can fit 3 bikes, and if I bring my car I can put in a couple more into the back.
So ive got 2 rooms booked for Saturday night and we will be having dinner with some guys from Queens. They will be cooking for us and we`ll just throw them some cash.
The weather is looknig great for this weekend too but remember to bring warm riding layers for race day. I will bring a few extra UGC jerseys if anyone needs one.

Hey Alex, thanks for offering rides, but the last guy aside from me has just bailed. I could leave with Rookie Dan, but it's not really worth it to pay for a hotel/motel room for 8 hours, I might just call it a wash and stay in Toronto.
That is, unless there's a (recommendable) place that'll charge me an hourly rate.
I'm hashing out some last minute options, but the odds are looking slim. I'll make a final post some time today.
Thanks again, everyone, for offering a ride.
Adrian

Wow what a rush! My first Crit was kinda scary but very fun! Big shout out to Karen(gill), former UGCer and alumni of Guelph who wrecked all those Queens girls with a sweep of the lap premiums and a 1st place finish!
You B guys did awesome considering for some of you it was your first bike races and 1st crit! That takes a lot of guts.
I had some serious hurt going on in the legs post-race on account of falling off the back several times and having to jump back on with some serious pulls.
Ill post the results and any photos as soon as I see them.
Way to go UGC! Hopefully we can do some more road events in the future!
