Looks fantastic...there has been a lot of back and forth w/ Asheville and USA cycling with the racers on the parking and tent logistics...one thing seems certain, the course is really, really good...

Looks great. Myerson did add the caveat that he had no idea what lines would be left after 6 days at the time he gets to actually race it. That sidehill stuff at 3:00 and 7:50 is going to get horrid!

Yeah totally. I would love to see some drone footage of the course now, and then again before/during/after the elites on Sunday.

Adam is never short on opinion.

It's plenty technical, just not a lot of elevation change. It's a power course.

I really wish I could have made going work. The course looks awesome, and biltmore is just such a cool place.

A noticeable absence of heritage trees.
