In follow up to http://www.thephotoforum.com/forum/...y/337802-cycling-photography.html#post3040082, THANK YOU! I did okay and had a great time!
I picked up my rental glass 70-200 F2.8 ED VR 2 days in advance and shot nonstop up to the event to get a feel for it (cars, fast moving children, soccer practice, a big picnic birthday party!). The ride went really well! I'd talked to my boss for the day well in advance so I knew she knew what to expect from me. I had the best time ever shooting backwards out of the sunroof. It was definitely a lot of calm interrupted by whirlwinds of activity! Next time I'll bring sunblock. And a detailed map!
I need to work on my post processing skills, and I hate Rawtherapee for crashing every 5 minutes. LR is on the way in the mail. The pavement was just a big reflective mess, and advice on improving the processing front would be great. A couple more are on flickr if you are curious. Flickr: cmw8rus' Photostream
Anyway here are three of my better shots, please C&C:

And here are some of my favorite starting line shots, just for fun but you are welcome to C&C these too if you are feeling like it:mrgreen::
