We will ride a controlled pace that gives you the best chance of breaking the coveted 5-hour mark. To help you in your quest, you will have a premier starting spot at the front of the grid, support motor cycles, and a team of experienced coaches and racers leading the way.<\/p>\n<p>Pace Group participants will receive a special edition jersey and professional level support throughout the ride. Training Plans, Merchandise, and Training Events are also available to Pace Group participants. Please see www.athletesontrack.com for more details as they become available.<\/p>\n<p>Please note that this is not a &#8220;no drop&#8221; ride. We will coach, we will cajole and coerce, but ultimately it will be your responsibility to keep up. Before signing up for the group, you should have completed at least 1 100 mile ride, and have a reasonable expectation of meeting the 5 hour goal.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993366;\"><em><strong>Biking already can make one not smell so nice now there could be bicycle helmets that add to your aroma (actually this only happens if your helmet is damaged).<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"http:\/\/www.engadget.com\/2010\/06\/03\/fraunhofer-developing-bike-helmets-and-other-products-that-sti\/\" href=\"http:\/\/www.engadget.com\/2010\/06\/03\/fraunhofer-developing-bike-helmets-and-other-products-that-sti\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Fraunhofer developing bike helmets (and other products) that stink when damaged<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\nfrom Engadget by Joseph L.
