I checked this out the other day but decided it would be bogus because it was limited to 350 watts (checked at race end) and
only for pedal assist to 20 MPH. Then I saw that is was sponsored by Bosch. Figures.

But then I got to thinking, screw it. Enter the race, show everyone what real fun is (3kW+)
and just go have a great time.
I was going to suggest they have a class for non Bosch setups including hub motors and other mid drives.
I think that they should allow only bicycle tires as the line starts to blur at some point.
Let's get a bunch of people to enter and make an 'Outlaw' class. It would be rad.
We have till next April to get a bike ready and it's an hour long race.
