    Wahine - did you use a mountain bike or cross bike or ___________? Would you use the same bike again?

    Bubba and I have some dirt road loops that would probably be faster on a mountain bike because of the long sections of rock and baby heads but we still can't break our tradition of riding cross bikes. Kind of a badge of honor for us idiots but we at least know what we're getting into. Curious what kind of bike you used.

    Editing - nebbermind. I found this. Everyone's on cross bikes (Though all the photos showed recently graded and bladed roads. Must be nice.)

    Were you in any of the photos?

    Most people used cross bikes, many used road bikes with regular road tires and there were very few mtn bikes. The course is about 30 miles total of dirt, some of it washboard but most of it very good.

    I'm not in any of those photos. Thanks for pointing them out.
