    Some good stages in next year's race, but it would be cool if they did a stage over one of the mountain passes with 15 ft. snowbanks on the side of the road....

    Can't really tell on the map right now, but any chance that stage 3 will go up and over Mt. Hamilton on the way up to Livermore? That's a beast of a climb...
    My orders came through. My squadron ships out tomorrow. We're bombing the storage depots at Daiquiri at 1800 hours. We're coming in from the north, below their radar.
