Comments: Rest stops were pretty well stocked and all had Bike Mechanics willing to help. Lunch stops were pretty good as well. Dinner and festivities afterward weren't too bad. Lodging was the campground area of the Fairgrounds. Wouldn't have been bad except for the trains running all night and honking their horns and the barking dogs right next door. May locate other lodging if I do it again in the future. Road conditions on day two were just awful and the course selection that day was a bit suspect. What would you do differently?: As usual, didn't train well enough. Really must remedy this because it makes these events that I love to do so much more difficult! Post race
Warm down: Slow ride once I got back in to town. Stretched a lot and drank tons of fluids. Free neck/back massages in the Beer Garden were nice. Would have loved a leg massage though, that's where I needed it most. What limited your ability to perform faster: Training. Event comments: Not bad, but may not do this again due to the course on Day 2 and the sleeping troubles. Also, I'm not a fan of fundraising but I thought I'd give it a try. I'd much rather just donate to someone else! I think I;d rather do STP but we will see what fits in to the training schedule next year. Last updated: 2011-06-28 12:00 AM

2 day event. Sep 10 and 11
Woke up at 7am, went and had breakfast supplied by the organizers. Walk around for a bit before getting my stuff ready. Was on the bike by 8 or just slightly after each morning.
Meant to start our slowly as my warm-up but wasn't so succesful on day 1
