Barriers will be installed on Crybaby Hill this year for the first time. Crowds have steadily increased each year and it's become dangerous for the bike racers. I expect the barriers will make the area impassable for pedestrians as the crowd will be gridlocked. I'm not planning to attend.

I think, or hope, this will start thinning out the grunge factor of CBH. The last few years we were in Tulsa it was a total shitshow. Even going uphill to pick up assets for SFTT an hour after the event it was still a disaster. I'm also curious how much longer the residents there are going to be good sports about the event.
