Saturday is shaping up to be a busy day for bike events around town.

Go Means Go’s infamous Tour de Watertower starts at 1. This is a grueling time trial that hits up many of the highest points in the city all in a row (check out the map). From Go Means Go:

As before, riders will be released minutes apart from one another so that each is facing only Seattle’s best climbs and their own limits. New for this year, we’ll be taking preregistrations , so you get you can get your start time before race day and not have to wait around. The first racer will be scheduled out the gate at one o’clock. Please plan to be at the start 10 minutes before your leave time to insure you can be checked in. You can still register in person on race day, but you will be given a slot after all the preregistered racers. Preregistration ends at 11:59pm, Thursday, July 21.
