The eight-day, 1200km race will feature four days in Canada's Québec province, followed by one day in Vermont, two days in New Hampshire, with the finale in Massachusetts.
Taking place in August 2007, here's the article link: http://www.velonews.com/race/dom/articles/11643.0.html
My 1986 Pontiac Sunbird Safari died on this trip once. These guys are going to be tearing it up by bike. Looks like the climbs are going to be in Vermont, from Jay Peak to Sugarbush. and a day from Franconia Notch to Concord. (I think that one may be all down hill?) And to finish it off, a Circut in the historic Boston Commons, just watch out for the pigeon crap, that stuff can be slick. Sounds like a bad ass week of racing.

Im giving these Rudy's a run this year, At first I was a bit sceptical about the field of vision due to the frame shape. The Rydon and Rydon II and similar look like they would provide a litttle better field of vision to the side and when looking back. After a couple test drives I didnt even notice the frame. So Far an A as far as wind and debris protection and fogging goes. And you get some cool tan lines! The real test comes up as the season gets underway, check back for updates.

Notice they have smaller frame sizes for people with little coconuts like me!
