Great ride report! Bake Oven is one of those names that sends chills up my spine. Around here, we have a "Small Pox Trail" shudder.
That must have been really scary having no light at the end. How weird not letting you have a support car in the dark when you need it most! What was the reasoning behind that? Glad you made it down okay!

What a great report! I can't believe you did 157 miles in a dress!!
Very impressive ride. Almost makes me want to try something similar someday...almost, but not quite.

Yup, the 1st 157 was in a dress. At the ride start, one of the guys jokingly said "You're not really going to ride in a dress, are you?" To which I replied, "of course I am!". To which he replied "no, really.... you're aren't actually going to ride in a dress, are you?". "Um, yeah, I really am."

Holy cow. What a ride report (and ride!). I am amazed.
What is this cycling dress? (eta...saw the castelli dress on your website...is that what you wore?)Last edited by Starfish; 10-15-2009 at 02:16 PM.
