The morning started out with glazed ice everywere. I watched in horror as I saw several riders eat dirt ahead of me. I had a couple close one slid the back tire all over the place, however I'm pretty good at recovering rear tire slides ( I havent fallen this winter) I also recovered a front tire washout on a downhill. I slowed down a little after that. After the first 20 miles It got better traction wise and a lot faster. Then it got muddy and hilly. I only had 5 minutes of pause time over all and made 4 stops (potty breaks) It was alot of fun...or thats how I choose to remember it.

Good Job, Courtney. I will get in next year, I love bike, I love beer, so sounds perfect to me.
What was worse, the gale-force winds we rode in on Jan. 1 or the slop-nasty from Saturday? Either way, really impressive that you horsed a SS up those hills.
