Depending on the direction of the wind we will start toward the South or the North to arrange a tail wind through the Tooele Valley. It would make the ride much more enjoyable. In the Salt Lake Valley there is at least a little terrain to deflect the wind a little. Kerry says he knows the way.
This is a fast A-pace ride. I'm hoping some of BCC Racing will be looking for a ride this weekend. If you ride for a different team, or you're a BCC Member, or found this ride on the web, come out and hang tough for 6 hours. Minimal stops, high average speed, but supposedly moderate climbing.
Not only is this completely self-supported, it won't be an official club ride, because of the short time frame. Ride at your own risk. !!! TWO tubes, TWO bottles, PLENTY of nutrition required. !!!

Ouch. That was a great day guys. We ended up with a little over 118 miles and 4300ft of climbing. I hope to see more of you out there next time.
It was a great ride. Most interesting moments were being served lunch in the desert, and letting John and Kerry freight-train Travis and myself downhill out of Toelle. :-) This could easily be a future SuperSeries ride, although we spent 1.5 miles on I-80 (which wasn't that bad.) Tom's got an idea to tweak the route a bit. Great great day to be on a bike!
