For something in DVOA-Land, I am guessing Tyler SP/Bucks CCC would be perfect.  Lehigh/Star Village should work as well for more physical terrain.

Hope this helps,

Rich

ah brill! Any where I can get copies of the maps? or someone willing to quickly plan me a course or two with 18-20c and around 3.3km?
I'm in philly for most of june and trying hard to figure out how to get in as much training as I can before leaving for woc.

WCOC is having some sprints - they're not too far away.

Hi,

I am 75% certain that Zac is going to run a non-flagged sprint at Lehigh in the morning then a longish middle course on South Mountain after lunch on Saturday.  The middle course is going to use a subset of permanent course markers.  The sprint will be starting near the top and running mostly downhill.  You can join us (I can bring the maps) or we can even carpool.

Dan and Zac

Here is a sprint course we did at Tyler a couple years ago.
