I spent four hours in there and had to skip the latter half of the '80s and all of the '90s bikes to get through it. There are scooters. Not many, but some. I...

It was windy. The being blown around wasn't so bad, it was the headwind that at times only allowed me to hit 45 that sucked. P.S. Hill City United had a blast...
