I'm in! Who else is in? Jo? Andtckrtoo? Dachshund? MP? Veronica? Anyone else?Originally Posted by jobob
If you want to do a shorter version of the TdS, you could probably start from the Fremont BART station and end at the Dublin/Pleasanton BART, then take BART back to Fremont.
I mapped it out on Bikely:

About 98* miles and roughly 7200 ft of climbing. (*Ed to add: Oops, make that 96 miles)
As Mel would say, C'MON!!!
C'MON - it'll be an unforgettable experience!!!

psst, Ms. Hund, 11/7 is a Friday. No can do Fridays.
Oh and thanks for the kudos re BART stations. I like to use all available resources - esp if they make my life easier.

I'm in! I'm actually pretty free now except next Sunday (the 19th). Of course that can change, but if we decide on a date, I'll lock it in!
I'll hang out with the back of the pack. I'm not a super fast climber.Christine

I'm racing 11/1 and I've targeted 11/8 as my 200 K day. I like to do them as early in the month as I can. We're traveling at Thanksgiving so I have fewer weekends available. But thanks for thinking of me.
I have decided to have another crack at DMD though in 2009. In 2006 my back was what made me quit. My core has gotten a lot stronger since then...
