Hotter N Hell riders?

[rheidis73]

Hi all!

Haven't been in in forever, but was wondering if anyone is doing the the Hotter N Hell 100 ride this year?


There might be a thread already! Sorry if there is

Yep... one of the New Year's rituals now is logging on and signing up for the HHH... We'll be camping over by the Ag Center...

I'm in. My goal is to do the 100 miles in under 5 hours. If no wind, I can do it. If wind, it will be a stretch.

Thanks guys for your input! I did it two years ago. It was 106! They closed the Hotter gate at one point. Only made 75 miles, but the heat definitely got to me!

Can anyone camp at the ag site? Are there showers/bathrooms? How far is it from the start?

Thank you

The Bridwell Ag center is open for tent and RV camping (there's a small charge for the RV hookups), or you can simply throw down a cot or bedroll on the floor inside. There are bathroom facilities and showers available, and the HHH staff usually sets up cold showers outside for after the ride. It's adjacent, just over a foot bridge from the conference center, and only about a short two blocks from the start line.

Thank you for the info! Last time, I had to get a hotel in Mt Vernon. I think that was the name of the town..anyway, it was quite a ways away...Just want to try and be closer this time...

Do I need to call the Bridwell and make arrangements or do I just show up? Is there always room? Is it a good idea to bring a tent if there is no room available inside? Is there anything else I should know if I use this option?

Thank you for your time. I do realize that the hotels are usually booked by now, but haven't tried looking at all yet. Just looking into other options..
