    I'm glad it's going to be warm - I like warm. I keep looking at the hill profile picture, reminding myself that there are only two climbs I find HARD! on this ride. It's all mental.

    PS all the other climbs are just hard.
    Discipline is remembering what you want.

    Every time I see the title for this thread, I read it as: Devil Mountain Double Spectacular!!! (Yes, my mind even adds exactly three exclamation marks.) Fitting, but incorrect.

    Good luck V.

    Veronica:

    I remember at last year's DMD, you and Thom cheered the climbers somewhere along the route. I remember seeing a picture you posted. Where was that taken? Would that be a good place to watch? What time?

    Sorry to be a pest!

    Edit... Oh... I found the thread. http://forums.teamestrogen.com/showthread.php?t=2640It looks like it was Sierra Road. Is that officially not on the course this year?

    Edit again... Or was the picture taken on Mines road?

    Sierra is on the course, but you I believe cannot drive up it the way the riders are riding up because it is closed to cars. I am going to go around whatever the other side of Sierra is to the top of Sierra because my daughter want to see the goat. Then I'll be going up the west side of Hamilton and down Mines - basically backtracking the route.

    I'll probably get to Sierra around 4 - 4:30 because that's when the goat (and my friend) get there. Then I'll head over to Hamilton.
