What races am I missing that you would think would be happening in a 'normal' year? Include any of that middle no mans distance like Santa Barbara.
(this is suppose to be a list of what races you think might be available going forward, not a historical list)

-Oceanside70.3
-Santa Cruz 70.3
-Indian Wells 70.3
-HITS Napa
-HITS Palm Springs
-Santa Barbara long course
- Is Malibu doing a half again?
-Auburn still do one?
-Looks like Wildflower might be coming back per their FB page?
-Tahoe big blue adventure


What else do you have?

The last update I heard was that Santa Rosa was taking 2021 off, then planning to come back.

well that would be good news! i remember hearing or reading something that they were off for 2021 and hoping to come back in the future, but it seemed very very non committal.

That'd be awesome. Hope that both 70.3 and 140.6 come back.... and the city services pave their effing roads :)
