->> Moving the dates will end up killing this race. Feb. was perfect because it got a lot of big names from Europe to come out for pre season training. Now it will be going up against the Giro. Hopefully is will continue to grow. Now it will be going up against the Giro.

LA TT will be nice for me this year and Big Bear will be a very tough stage.

->> They are going to run the ToC at the same time as the Giro? What an incredibly bad move.

I hope the race survives. I miss the Tour de Georgia, which I think the ToC kind of killed. Whatever the case, big time North American stage racing shouldn't be allowed to die.

->> They move it to May so they can have better weather and take it to the mountains to make it a true race that would draw internationale competition and all we get is Big Bear? Since it is the same time as the Giro all it will get from Europe is the 2nd string riders and big American names for the home crowd. Kind of sad to see it take our best talent away from a true Grand Tour
