MexicanDragon Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 I was 55m from the finish line today. It was a pretty crazy sprint to the finish as a pack of 13 sprinted it out. I missed "The Wall" as they were calling it, a 22% grade short climb off of a tight right turn... it's beastly. I talked to one of the Litespeed shop guys who were out there, and they rode the course this weekend. He turned the corner and said "I'm walking this, guys," and I don't think anyone could blame him.These guys were averaging about 25MPH for the 102 mile ride. With 3-4 climbs up the mountain and I think 7 climbs up "the wall", I just can't imagine.Chris, Ben, Raffy... one day, you guys will have to come ride this route. I'll drive the support vehicle.**BRENT** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CD44hi Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 i think i could do that i want to start riding around town but am afraid. cars do not appreciate bikes on the roadsthat would be great if you can make it. Wouldn't you have to start driving at an ungodly early hour? ..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister X Posted May 30, 2014 Report Share Posted May 30, 2014 New bits to fix sticky 6-7-8 shifts. http://www.ebay.com/itm/221119885994 I prolly should have bought a retail kit but it did the trick. Time to go see how they fare after some abuse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreadhead Posted June 1, 2014 Report Share Posted June 1, 2014 I'm going to try and show up about an hour or so early and do some riding before hand. See you all there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
