I'd be willing to help, so let me know after you've given it more thought!
I'm hoping to do the Hillhopper(with coworkers) & Houston MS150(with cousin & uncles) in 2007.......lofty goal with them being so close, but we shall see.

The Hillhopper has been the start of my MS150 training the last two years. I usually am a little wimpy about cycling in the cold and the Hillhopper reminds me to get it in gear. It is great way to convince yourself to train harder. I trained hard for the MS150 both years and didn't hurt nearly as bad as most people did Monday.
The MS150 is the best ride out there. Don't skip the park- it is painful but so worth it. We decided to skip doing the MS150 this year, but I know we will miss it come April.

Are you still doing the HillHopper?
We plan on it. This year I plan to ride in the winter and not let the ride kick my butt. It is so hilly, but none are really steep. It is just one roller after another. The first year was the only time I ever considering sagging on a ride. I will conquer those hills!![]()
