Tour of America Off for 2008

Whew!

According to the dreamer-in-chief, Frank Arokiasamy, the race organizers have started laying the groundwork with hosts, sponsors, and folks along a potential route. The 2009 race, presumably still targeting September, "is expected to include New York City, Philadelphia, Cincinnati, Indianapolis, St. Louis, Denver, Las Vegas and the California cities of Sacramento, Napa, Santa Rosa and Palo Alto," according to VN.

Personally, I think they should announce it for 2010 now. Give it a long build-up and really hammer the crap out of every last detail. The way they're proceeding now -- announcing, canceling, announcing, canceling -- still looks haphazard and rushed.
