Seems there are Cycle Options days at Putnam Oct 1 & 2.
I'm thinking of heading down for Sunday, but wonder if anyone has run with them and has opinions on their style to share.

I will be there for both days. They are a decent org. Very laid back. I have had no problems with them.

Very laid back org (no CR's really). Sign up for I and I bet you'll be fine out there.

I wonder how many people will come out for "practice"?

The $195 is making me think twice :/ I do want to go though, haven't been to Putnam this year.

i think i am going but if it rains again i may need to move to another state. autobahn this last weekend killed me. hopefully going down for sunday.

I have ridden with these guys before and its a fun day, no real CRs but the group I rode with was pretty safe/fun.

I've rode with them before. Their class structure is a little different since they try to get a lot more street and vintage riders to come out and ride, so the "Sport/Street" class is a bit of a weird mix of folks. Their "Intermediate" group relative to NESBA probably spans a fast B to mid-pack I pace, but with A group passing rules :wow:. They put coach riders out in the "Sport/Street" group consistently, but in the "Intermediate" group it seemed to be by special request only. I haven't rode with their "Hot Race" group yet.

One hand for yourself, and one for the ship.

I already winterized the track bike, but this is tempting.....I'll watch the weather and see. Thanks for posting this.
