    Glad to hear the report, Alex. I did a BBTC ride yesterday and there was (for me) a lot of climbing, but nothing compared to what TdePC might be. I know for me, I am a 'slug' and I just get up the hills (put my head down with some visual and make it up to the top). I feel I have 'accomplished' something when I make it to the top. Then the glorious downill. I love downhill after a successful climb and grin the whole way down. Alex, you have accomplished a lot this summer and you should go for it. You can always turn back at some point where you think 'you have had enough' of the climb.

    The Tour de Park City website has been updated. Now it says that the total elevation gain for the century is about 8000 feet. That makes more sense than the 13,000+ they originally estimated for the route. It also looks like the 100-mile route is more like 92 miles.
