    Oh! BRAT is coming to Cedars of Lebanon State park this year!! That's where I live. Shout out before you leave and I'll come see you.

    SouthernBelle, I'll definitely give you a shout when we're out your way. I'll contact you later by PM as the ride nears and exchange some info! That's so exciting that you live out that way.

    Ugh. I can't get Routeslip to work for me but would love to see the elevation profile for the ride. Is there any other way to access that information?

    I'd love to get my hands on it because I'm having a hard time describing it to the flatlanders here in Indy. When they think hills, they think the Hilly Hundred. To me, this was A LOT harder than the Hilly because the elevation changes NEVER STOPPED. The mental focus it took just to pick the right gear was exhausting. We just don't have anything to compare it to here. When I decribed the hills as rollers, people picture something rather gentle but I wouldn't describe Saturday's century as gentle.

    I'll see what I can get together for you on the route. I think the guy that lives behind me is planning on riding one day of it. Or my LBS may have it. OR they will probably have something soon on the state website.

    Without having seen it, I can pretty much promise you no flats.

    Try to drill down from the root directory at www.routeslip.com then "Discover Routes", then drill geographically to Georgetown. I labeled it "hh100". Maybe this approach will work...

    If there's one for BRAT, I'd love to see it too...it really helped me to know what to expect beforehand. On the other hand, if I knew the elevation before I arrived in Georgetown, I might not have come...

    Some puters just won't run Routeslip. My laptop won't, but both my desktops will.

    Doubt there is a route for this year's BRAT. It's different every year.

    This was the "minor" accomplishment you were talking about?! You have a talent for understatement! Well done!

    That's the problem I've encountered on Routeslip. Mr. Silver, is there any way that you can "cut and paste" the elevation profile into a post or print it off?

    Thanks much,
