As some of you might know I recently started road biking. I'm not new to the sport-- transitioning over from mountain biking. I just moved to Orlando (lived here my whole life, but have spent the past 4 years in Atlanta, GA), and I'm looking to get involved in road biking. I haven't come out for a local windermere ride yet, its still on the to do list. My main concern with those rides is, I'm not really looking forward to doing 40 miles everytime like some of you do. Not sure if I'm allowed to cut it short. Also, a friend of mine told me to start racing--he said go ahead and try a Category 5 crit and see how you do. So just wondering, what is involved? How do these races go? How long are they? Is there anything special I have to do? Are they held on a track or a course? Thanks so much for the help guys! I look forward to seeing some of you soon!
