AZT 300 prep starts this new year

Everybody

The decision has ben made to give the AZT 300 bike race a go this year, The 300 is an "underground" bike race covering the fist 300 miles of the Arizona trail, starting near the mexican border south of Tucson going north through Tucson and further north. The record for the race is 2 days, 9 hours. I dont think i will be that fast, but i will give it my best. Anyway, the new year will start the prep for the miles involved. It will be much like my divide prep. The event is mid April, about 3 months away. Thats the plan anyway. Anybody with me? Rhino? Jim? Harv? Nick?

Check out the event

Elliot market boy scout hill 20

Everybody

Yesterday, Nick, Rhino and myself got out fro a great ride. We all met at the Elliot market at 9. Our route took us for a grand loop of the eastern trails. About the only thing we did not catch was trail 18, and the coldwater. We had a great time with perfect weather. All 3 of us were able to clean PAW including Rhino on his full rigid SS!!!!!! The best part was being able to take the guys on a "secret" trail for the first time. They would say that i would call it my favorite trail.... Stats... about 20 miles and 1900 ft gain.
