Great job! When you said you were training for it, I went to the site and read the gearing recommendations. I fell out of my chair laughing at the thought of what kind of ride could even have those suggestions.
Can't wait to hear your EPIC ride report. If you can't remember parts, it is probably EPIC.

Thank you everyone! I haven't had the time in the past couple of days to write anything up, but plan to work on it tomorrow.
This is just such an epic event and the scenery is just amazing. I would highly recommend this to anyone who really wants to challenge themselves. You have a year to train. Who's with me next year?
