Guys, some percpective here, don't grumble about a race....yes you have trained and geared yourself up for this (financially and otherwise), but look around your home, losing that is of far greater consequence. Some perspective is warranted. Planning can't take in to consideration "acts of God or Smokers" we'd never get anything done. This is bigger than the cycling community, read about the generosity towards a guy called Scott in 2013 by this community....was expecting more rallying around the local community by the race supporters?!
