Well some people have decided to not do Davis. Some people do not saddle time at this point in their training, they need to do hard climbs for TT and will be heading up to Sonoma County that weekend.
Have fun!

YES!! Boy that SK sure gets mad at inanmate objects. Short fuse or something.
I'll be doing Davis - its my one double with DH and our friends. I hope to beat our time from last year now that I know I can ride a flattish double fast and not flame out (DH tends to go out fast and that worried me last year because it was our first).
Do you think there's any chance we'll see you? As I recall, Winters is relatively late in the ride - but I am going off memory and also confusing it a bit with Knoxvillle. Where are those damned corners? Should I wave at them if I go by? I'll bet they're sad that SK is so mad at them...Sarah

Slinke, if it helps you to know this (w/o using Krebs) all of the climbing on the shorter route is at the beginning.

Yes, it would definitely be the shorter route for me. Do you honestly believe that I haven't looked at my Krebs? Get real, Woman.

Some other people need to get the their hineys on a bike, hills or flat (no Slinke, I am not referring to you - my hiney hasn't been on the bike much this year). I'll be there, corners be damned.

No, but just in case . . . Originally Posted by slinkedog

MP, using the 2001 DD map, Winters is between RS#1 (Plainfield) and RS#2 Markley Cove. Markley Cove is after you've climbed the Dam and are on your way to Moskowite Corner, where our group will turn south down Wooden Valley to Mankas Corner. The map I have is a very poor repro so I can't tell how many miles you wander around the fields of Davis and Plainfield before getting to Winters. It looks like the top of Cardiac is at mile 50 for you and probably mile 8 or 10 for us. If you've ever done the 100 mile Foxy Fall, is almost the same but we've cut out the boring stuff between Winters and Davis (and we do it in reverse).Frends know gud humors when dey is hear it. ~ Da Crockydiles of ZZE.
