I'd field a team for the 24 hour race, but not for July. Too soon. Plus 847 feet of climbing in 5 miles. That's, like, a lot.

Sounded like a lot of climbing to me too. Glad I'm not the only one.

I would like to try a 24 hour race sometime. Sounds like fun.

We climbed almost 500 vertical in 4-ish miles on Sunday. Not that it was overly grueling or anything, but I couldn't imagine almost doubling that in 5 miles. Actually the whole lap is 5 miles so it's gotta be more like 2-3 miles...

Nevermind the fact that it looks like a rough single lap..

You have to continually do it for 6 12 24 hours.. rofl..



Lets get a bunch of total noobs to riding... and kill ourselves for second to last place.
