Big Damm Bridge

Does anyone know about the wrecks? I saw one in the beginning (later heard it was a broken bone) and DH said he saw two bad ones over on the 100 miler? Psyclepath?

I stopped with one fellow down by Murray Park, just before the BDB... he had crossed wheels with the rider in front, took a short trip over the bars, and broke his collar bone. I was on the 50-mile route this time, so I missed the fun of Billy Goat Hill and Round Mountain, but haven't heard of the bad crashes like last year's. The road is kind of rough going up to Mayflower, and it gets a lot worse as you head east on the 100-mile loop... gotta be careful, and try not to out-ride your guardian angel out there.

Well, I guess I went right by you Psyclepath--I saw that one before the paramedics arrived. DH said it wasn't rocket science--don't do 45 down a hill in a large group--but apparently that isn't standard thinking. Yep, Mayflower. Maybe I'll do the 50 mile next year--but I wanted the metric as a training ride for my century on the 11th!
