Great "ride report" Smilingcat!!

A couple of changes - you do both sides of Monitor and then Both sides of Ebbett's before lunch in the valley at the base of Ebbett's (maybe 5 - 7 miles from Markleeville). Then on to Carson.

They don't make you answer the questions any more - sounds funny!

And on the fundraising, TNT's fundraising #s are generally higher than some other events, like ALC, because they must ensure that at least 75% of the money raised goes directly to leukemia research and patient services. (It's generally closer to 85 - 85%, but 75% is their minimum.) So they calculate the fundraising amount by taking the costs for the event and simply multiplying by four. For this event, not only is there team ride permit and insurance costs, lodging and event entry and the general season expenses, but there's also food and lodging for the altitude camp as well.

And my "E ticket ride" is the lower part of Carson - I hit 58 there a couple of years ago.
