Kinda bummed they didn't come through Paso Robles this year. We went to the time trials in Solvang, which is a much better spectator event. The date change was a good move. The weather in past years was not the best.

I agree that moving the dates for better weather was a good idea... but during the Giro? Granted, cyclists have to pick and choose their races... they can't do them all...
Well, I take that back. I can make sense of it. The big gaps in the schedule are June and August. Those are recovery months between the Grand Tours, before the Tour de France and the Vuelta a Espana. If the Tour of California was in June, then those guys would not be able to ride in
Le Tour. August would be too soon after
Le Tour. So, given the constraints, I guess it makes sense.
