do not mix.

Today, during my holiday ride, it's Nevada Day, which means staff gets a freebie and I get to come in late, I was riding down our Boulder City hill, on the tri bike no less, not really paying attention, just drifting down the hill about 35 mph, when a tour bus missed me by about six inches, but the air draft surrounding it nearly knocked me completely over.

It reminded me never to take cycling for granted and that time trial bikes are not as stable as road bikes.

Any how, for those of you coming to Vegas with your bikes, what sort of ride do you want to do? A scenic ride of how many hours? 3, 4, 5 or more?
