Re: Missed the markings for the Century
Raymond,
I echo your remarks, but not in respect to this year’s event. I signed up for the century last year and also got lost due to issues similar to what you just described. I had signed up for the century and found myself on the metric course because of lack of early enough markings at a couple of crucial splits, and I was surrounded by a few other riders who were also lost and confused. Nevertheless, I acknowledge that marking a course as complex as this must be extremely challenging.
I think that if the corrections you recommend are implemented before the event, the rides will go much smoother this year, for everyone involved.
Thanks,
Nick

Andy, Dennis, and all the folks who made three Workers' ride such a great event,
Tim, Scott, and I missed the orange arrows at the end of Vineyard to turn right and instead went left towards "the barn" on our way back through Livermore and completely missed stopping at the last stop (Muir Park?). Besides that all the markings were great.
Thanks,
Roberto
