    MMMMM gotta love Pickle Juice! I must say I would never buy the packaged stuff but I will take it at a rest stop. Sounds like you all had good luck, I hate the wrecks on the large rides.

    The Wichita Falls paper didn't say anything about a heart attack. It said minor injuries with a few broken bones(which I wouldn't consider minor). We did see them load a rider in the ambulance at the start line before the race ever started. I wondered at the time if maybe that was a heart attack?

    Hello all ~

    This was my first HHH and I have to say it was great. My girlfriend and I rode together (it was her first century and she did fantastic). Here are some of our times -

    We made it to Hell's Gate at 11:08 averaging 18.5 mph!
    We finished averaging 16.6 mph
    Ride time was right around 6 hours
    Completed time was 8:23

    We had a blast and will definitely be back next year.

    No blowout this time so I was able to complete the 100 mile route this year. My ride time was 6:09 and my total time was 7:57. We had one flat which seemed to take awhile to change. It didn't seem like we were taking a lot of time at the rest stops but apparently we were. There were just so many people that it took awhile to get your water bottles filled. I had such a good time. I'm already looking forward to next years HHH.
