I'll second Mike's comments about this being a fun and diverse race. You get to experience a wide range of racing conditions. The upwind leg from TI to the GG Bridge is usually fairly mild at that time of the morning, the beat to Bonita and the run back to the Bridge is anyone's guess on wind conditions, the downwind leg from the GG bridge to the Bay Bridge is usually a great run with a screaming reach past Alcatraz (you have to leave Alcatraz to stbd), and the run from the Bay bridge to EYC is warm, flat, and "challenging".

If you're planning on racing, get your entry into YRA before Monday to avoid a $35 late fee.

See you on the water
