Yah, only 24,000 feet of climbing while on a "crash diet" - what a slacker!!!!
Seriously, though, I really enjoyed your ride report and pics. Hopefully you gave them feedback about the vegetarian meals.

Whatever, whiners and slackers unite. When I grow up, can I ride like you? We can both stay away from that WTF ledge.
But we're all waiting to hear if this year you dressed for dinner.

Congrats!!! Especially on posting a report! I did RTR the week before (Durango to Breckenridge) and still haven't written a report or posted a single picture.
Also, planning on this in a few weeks: www.crmbt.com I'll try to get a report of Ride the Rockies before I do this next one!
For 3 days, I get to part of a thousand other journeys.

Wow- I'm in awe of you!!!! I can't imagine what it takes to conquer that amount of climbing. DH and I have contemplated this ride, but we're flatlanders, and the climbing would just kill us (and it's not like training on our weenie 500 ft climbs would do us any good).
I'm amazed that you did so well with such little nutritional options available. Way to go, sista! Loved the report, as well as the pictures. Just beautiful!!!! Colorado is one of my favorite places- we just got back from there last week.Check out my running blog: www.turtlepacing.blogspot.com

Nah, be in awe of Pedal Wench - the Colorado Rocky Mountain Bike Tour sounds seriously intense.
